How to add all tabs to bookmarks in Android?
Hello. I haven't been able to find anything of the sort on my own, so i fear maybe there is no actual way other than doing it one by one. But, is there a way to add all of my currently open tabs in firefox android app, to my bookmarks (or collections, maybe), instead of having to select them one by one? Or, in its defect, a way to select all tabs, given that there seems to be no button to quickly select all currently open tabs? At this point, if anyone knows a firefox extension/add-on that works on mobile that could do that, i would deeply appreciate it.
Thanks in advance, i just want a way to not have to select my 100+ open tabs by hand since it genuinely seems like a waste of effort for me and i would rather spend that energy into migrating to another browser altoghether.

I'm not aware of a built-in tool to add multiple bookmarks at once and unfortunately, add-ons cannot work with bookmarks on Android.
If you are looking for a quick way to back up a list of open tab URLs:
This is a bit crude, but should work:
- Show the tabs list
- Tap the ... menu button
- Tap Share all tabs
- Tap your email application to compose a new message listing the open tab URLs
- Save or send the message (don't just use Back or it may be discarded)
Sync
As a side note, if you use Sync, you can bookmark your Synced mobile tabs in a desktop installation of Firefox. I've never tried getting those back on mobile so I don't know how that works.

I appreciate the reply and the advice. , but neither approach works for me, as the Share All Tabs function stops working after fourty or so open tabs (i imagine because the url's are too much text for it to process at once) and it freezes both Firefox and any receiveing app i try to use. To use sync for bookmarks isn't really an option either since trying to open +100 tabs in desktop isn't exactly doable withouth completely crashing my desktop.
I guess until Firefox makes an accesible way for me to save my tabs to declutter my browser (which doesn't seem like something that's ever going to happen) i'll have to switch to another browser. Still, thank you a lot for the advice, it's greatly appreciated, have a good day.
