REQUESTS: Option to Reuse tabs rather than creating new ones etc

The New tab system is a godsend but it can be even greater with some tweaks e.g.

- Reuse tabs e.g. Search, or Bible Word Study -  add Send Searches/Word Studies here so that future invocations of this function or report will reuse that tab. As it is, the tabs are multiplying faster than rabbits when I get into an in-depth study session.

- Reorder tabs

- Shortcut to switch tabs ... 4+ presses at the moment: Invoke toolbar > Hit Tabs button > Select tab (additional action if scrolling required) > Press to hide toolbar

- Drag existing tabs to create or separate split screen tabs

Keep up the good work!

Cheers

    - Reorder tabs

    You can reorder tabs in the "tab select" view by dragging them where you want them. The subtlety I've seen is when you drag beyond the edge of the screen, you have to sort of go slowly and pay attention to get the dragged tab where you want it.

    - Shortcut to switch tabs

    You can switch to an adjacent tab with a two-finger swipe from left to right or right to left.

    You can switch to an adjacent tab with a two-finger swipe from left to right or right to left.

    Also, if you have scrolling view turned on (in the view settings), a single finger swipe will switch tabs. This is how I prefer it. I have my most frequently accessed tabs adjacent to each other and a simple flick of my thumb switches between them!
