Long-press tabs icon to open new tab

[tony.kirov]

Long press (hold) tab Icon for open a new tab is one move action and it's would faster way comparing with press to open all apps page and press +

mod edit: updated title

good idea!
There are currently no browsers to do it!

Now long press the label button only the "open tab" pop-up window description, it is too wasteful space, support long press new label.
Long press the new tab under the General tab; press the tab button under the Privacy tab to create a new privacy tab.

I want to be able to long press the delete tab on the tab.

Great idea!

Maybe try implementing this instead (currently hidden behind a flag on Chrome Canary)

Also add to this in the options to switch to or go to now instead of going to the back ground.

Why would anyone want a new tab in the background? I can see opening a link in the background, but as far as I'm concerned it should always switch to new tabs.

@sgunhouse

Right now when you long press on a link and the options window shows, it says "open in new tab" it always goes to the background.

[sgunhouse]

But this thread is about opening a new tab (with no URL), not about opening a link in a new tab.

@poto Kiwi browser and Uc support it

@poto Samsung Internet Browser has this functionality. I'd like to see the ability to long press the icon and be able to create a new private tab and access speed dial. Sesame helps a bit with this for now.

the only browser i know that supports this is kiwi browser. would really love to see this on vivaldi too...

When you long-press on the Tab Switcher button on the bottom toolbar it gives you 3 options:

• New tab
• New private tab
• Close tab
