Close tabs automatically after a certain amount of time passed #4118
Description
Banner copy:
Set open tabs to close automatically that haven’t been viewed in the past day, week, or month.
DISMISS | VIEW OPTIONS
Why/User Benefit/User Problem
On mobile tabs can stack up and make it hard to find what you're looking for.
What/Requirements
Something like this that would allow users to define the amount of time before auto closing their tabs. From a recent Safari mobile version.
- AC work to allow us to have a "last opened" value for tabs
- Fenix work to build up a Setting
- Fenix work to add this Setting to an onboarding card
- AC/Fenix work to auto close tabs after user defined amount of time (or never)
Acceptance Criteria (how do I know when I’m done?)
Users can define how much time should pass before tabs autoclose (or never). Users should be able to change this Setting at any time. Tabs should autoclose once they have expired by the users' definition. We may want to also look into adding #2486 if we work on this feature so users can find tabs that may have closed recently that they still want easily.

It would be an optional setting for users who want an easy way to manage their list of tabs.

By the way, what happened to the option to close all tabs when I close the app? I think this should be part of this feature as well.

Hi @ekager , I've just checked this feature on both
Nightly 200902andBeta 81.1.0-beta.1using the following devices:• Google Pixel 3a (Android 10)
• OnePlus A3 (Android 6.0.1)
✔️ The Tabs are properly being deleted as per the option the user is selecting
❓ The CFR isn't displayed (after you open more than 6 tabs or after deleting in a row 6 or more tabs )
Could you please review and advise?☺️
I'll remove the QA needed label until further notice

Thanks for testing and sorry for any confusion!
The CFR/banner is pulled out into #14243 and is not a requirement
