  • Sometimes when opening link externally in Orion, shows you a random tab instead

  • BugsMobilePlanned

Steps to reproduce:
No exact steps, it happens randomly but is not rare (#2601)
I have attached multiple videos to showcase that the tabs it opens are random (even though it opens the target tab it does not switch to it automatically)

Expected behavior:
Switch to the target tab automatically after opening it

    @Vlad i detected this issue still being present as of 1.2, seems to completely ignore the wanted url to be opened and just does nothing. From my monitoring, it seems to be more common the longer time browser's open

        Recently this issue popped up again in a different form, when following these steps, it overlaps last tab in the tab group and desyncs on it. Until you switch to a different tab, it will display the last tab of tab group before the new url was opened.

        This has happened with Classic toolbar and with Orion being in background (not cold start)

          Steps to reproduce:
          <Include steps to reproduce the bug; Did you try using Compatibility mode? If applicable, does Safari behave in the same way?>
          Set Orion to the default browser on iOS, and open one tab beforehand, then click some websites in other apps, it would fail to load. The progress indicator will go forward, but it just doesn’t load the newly clicked website

          Expected behavior:
          <What you expected to happen?>
          Open the website successfully

            Merged 4 posts from If set Orion to the default browser, under some circumstances it would fail to load websites clicked from other apps.

              Can anyone post steps to reprorduce from an empty (no tabs) Orion app?

                This issue is still occurring. There are no real steps to reproduce. It just happens sometimes.
