Hello,

Unlike Opera, Firefox Android prevents the user from drag 'n dropping shortcuts to put them in folders. Besides, I reached the maximum number of shortcuts allowed

Is there an alternative to organize them — I don't want to put shortcuts on the phone homepage?

Thank you.

My homepage, which I do allow shortcuts on do have my pinned shortcuts, but also shortcuts that are not pinned (basically sites in my history), and I don't want those sites to show up as shortcuts

I am experiencing an issue where my saved Collections are not appearing on the Firefox Homepage (New Tab page), even though they clearly exist in the system.

The Issue: When I attempt to add a page to a collection, the "Select collection" overlay correctly shows my existing categories: Read Later, News, and Gemini.

The Discrepancy: When I return to the Firefox Homepage, the Collections section is completely missing. Only "Shortcuts" are visible.

Troubleshooting done: I have verified that I have active tabs saved within these collections (as seen in the attached screenshots), but the homepage remains empty below the shortcuts.

Device Specifications:

• Firefox Version: 150.0.1 (Build #2016157687)
• Build ID: 094f3362dcbcefdce34f05b355607cdce06a4ef4
• GV: 150.0.1-20260427013024
• AS: 150.0.1

I accidently deleted Firefox. When I reinstalled collections had disappeared. I can add a webpage to collections but no collections on the homepage. I have debug mode and set home screen default to control. Also disabled search bar. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. Any ideas?

When v143 was released something happened to the shortcuts row(s). Regardless of refreshing efforts, rolling back versions, and searching the forums, there's no way to consistently get the shortcuts back. Sometimes they appear with a new browser instance, sometimes they don't. They don't appear with new tabs, and they don't stay when they do appear with a new browser. Grrrr. Please restore the shortcuts!

I thought I was deleting one shortcut and when I toggled the button on the shortcuts page, they all disappeared. How do I get the short cuts back? And, how donI remove shortcuts I do not want?

Good morning. I opened up Firefox this morning and all 4 rows of shortcuts were missing. I have gone into settings and made sure the settings for 4 rows was still the same. I cannot find them anywhere. Please help

I have various shortcuts saved on the shortcut page comes up after logging in. Its set to 2 rows.. I use it every day. Used it this morning and working perfectly. Been out and when I came back the page is totally blank. I've tried sytem restore to 5th October but makes no difference. I use Windows 10 and read that Firefox are continuing to support Windows 10 I'm visually impaired and use a desktop PC with a large screen. I'm not PC techically knowledgeable. How do I restore my shortcuts or how do I re create them?

Hi, Since the last update for Mozilla on the laptop (updated on 6/Oct/2025 - version 143.0.4 (64-bit)), all the shortcuts to websites in Firefox homepage I had pinned have disappeared. Also I can't add new shortcuts. I already have shortcuts enabled in Settings>Home>Firefox Home Content>Shortcuts.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Kind regards.

For some reason after an update I lost the ability to access my collections. I can add new pages to my collection but have no way to access them. The option to add it to my homepage is now gone.

Previously, in the shortcut screen, you could swipe left right to display the other eight shortcuts. This no longer works. I have to tap showall to display all the shortcuts. Additionally the showall setting should be remembered, you shouldn't have to do two taps to get to the second list.

I have not changed my settings -- still want 1 row of shortcuts. They were just fine this morning but now the whole row is gone -- it's blank. I don't know how to get them back and can't seem to create new ones. Looked all through the Firefox settings but no good. What happened? Please advise.

Hello, I'm using Firefox on Linux Mint. All of my homepage shortcuts have disappeared without the option to add them back. I tried toggling the shortcuts option on and off and nothing happens. Nothing also happens when checking and unchecking the sponsored shortcuts setting.

The favicons on my homepage are not appearing when I launch Firefox, and I can't find any way to restore them. Turning the favicons on/off in the settings doesn't help, it just moves the location of the search bar. I've included some images to better illustrate the problem.

Is there any way we can restore the favicons?

Please let me know how to get my favorite sites back on my home screen. I use them a lot as they are real time savers. When I signed on this morning, it asked if I wanted Firefox to access my computer. I've always said yes and the updates have never caused a problem - until today.

I would appreciate an email ([edited email from community support forum]) letting me know how to get this to work.
