Research direction

Start by reviewing RedReader's navigation and frame-handling entry points, then compare the proposed tab behavior with the linked Chance app. Done means multiple links opened from another app can be selected through tabs instead of requiring repeated back swipes.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

When opening multiple links from a browser (or any other app) in RedReader each link is a separate frame that stacks on top of each other, requiring the user to swipe back to close the topmost frame to see the next one, and so on.

It would be better if there was tabs that the user can switch between to see each link, similar to the Chance app (it's the left column on the tablet view, on mobile in this screenshot it's not visible but it appears above the bottom menu when the user does a swipe up gesture):
