2. Switched to another app (e.g., file manager) to locate a file for upload.

3. Returned to Firefox to upload or continue working on the webpage.

4. Observed that the page reset or reloaded, losing the previous state or data.

Actual results:

When returning to Firefox after switching apps, the webpage reloaded entirely, causing the loss of any unsaved data or progress, such as filled forms, selected options, or ongoing uploads.
