Description
Most features are working with the new version of Kiwi that supports Chrome extensions on Android, but there are a few things that are not:
- Attempting to switch tabs does nothing
- Opening a new URL brings up an input prompt, but after hitting enter, the new page doesn't load
- The hints are difficult to read when Dark Mode is enabled.
I've tested this on a Samsung Tab S3 tablet running Android 8.1 with a bluetooth keyboard.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the three reported problems in Kiwi on Android: tab switching, loading a URL entered through the prompt, and hint readability with Dark Mode enabled. Trace each behavior from the corresponding user action, and consider the issue done when all three work correctly on the reported environment.
