Components
Duckduckgo app is an open source internet search engine available for androids. It also ensures the protecting of searchers' privacy and avoiding the filter bubble of personalized search results. It is a software that is getting fast recognition globally and I just want a feature to be added for a better experience by users. This is the Tab feature.
Proposal
My proposal is for a tab feature to be added to the search engine. This tab feature could be located either at the top left/right corner or bottom left/right corner of the screen but it must not necessarily have to be large in size. Just a small but obvious structure is suitable. This feature, when clicked will display all other sites that the user minimised before visiting the current site which he/she is at. From there, the user can now continue from where he/she stopped in the other minimised sites before he/she visited the current site. Minimisation of sites shouldn't cancel information but rather remain the same way the user left it till the user returns to the site.
Mockups / Examples
This is the current look of the app
How I'm proposing it should look like
So the above image shows the feature that I'm trying to describe. The number on it indicates the number of tabs(ie sites) that the user has used and minimised.
Here's a sample from another search engine
The icon with the number 4 is the feature that I'm talking about. From the image there, you can see that the user has minimised four tabs and that why it's indicating the number 4.
Benefits
•It will enable the user to operate on two sites at the same time.
•A user wouldn't have to close a site and lose all the information on that site just because he/she wants to open another site.
•It will make getting in formations or documents from other sites into a particular site easier and faster for a user.

Please it wasn't intentional... It was due to technical problem with the internet... Tried to post but couldn't and didn't know that my post was already submitted even as the internet had issues.
