## Description

Click on the addon icon in the extension list on Android to open up a (fake) new tab next to your current tab.

No data is collected. 

Because Firefox for Android lacks the ability to move tabs in the API this addon simulates clicking a link which opens up the addon's own custom new page next to your current tab (as if you opened a link from the site in a new tab which forces firefox to ask if you're sure you want to open it.)
