I had to redo my laptop. So i backed up my bookmarks then imported them when i was done. For some reason it imported to my laptop AND android. I need this to be reversed to the bookmarks I had on my phone urgently. Please advise how to revert back.

PS. I tried a google search however all I get is help for desktops.

Thank you

How did you backup your bookmarks?

I exported my laptop to a thumb drive. After the clean install I imported them on my laptop. I did nothing to my phone.

Hi

If you have Firefox Sync set up, when your restored your bookmarks they would then be syncced across to your mobile device.

If you cannot see the bookmarks prevously on your phone within your bookmarks now, it will not be possible to recover them.
