When making a new bookmark, I suddenly was offered the option to add a tag when adding a bookmark. This is just lovely, because I have long been irritated by FF in iOS ignoring my own keywords when I name a link. Now I can use the same few characters to pull up a favorite site on both my iOS and MacOS devices. VERY HAPPY TO SEE THIS!

But....when I pull up 'edit bookmark' on my iOS devices, I do not see any option to add tags.

Why is this option not available in all versions of FF? Is there a setting I need to add? Or is it a beta feature coming with the next FF update to iOS?

iOS 27.0.1, FF 159.0 (78949) MacOS 26.7.1, FF 160.0b5

All bookmarks I have tried to use just sit there and do nothing. Does not matter whether I use the listings down the left side of screen or I use the under the URL entry line. I have to type url or go to google and search for the address I want.

I'm running Windows 10 and latest version of Firefox.

Yesterday none of the bookmarks I had would work including the toolbar. I would click of them and nothing happened. Today ALL bookmarks are gone. The Bookmark toolbar is not there.

In addition to the Other Bookmarks folder at the bottom of the sidebar, 3 additional Other Bookmarks folders have appeared within other folders, all containing the same bookmarks. If I delete a bookmark in one Other Bookmarks folder it disappears from the others. I am concerned that if I delete one extra Other Bookmarks folder the others will all disappear with their bookmarks. How can I delete just the extra Other Bookmarks folders, and why did they just show up?

I have been confused on the last several days, until I finally realized what was happening. The bookmarks are not the same in the regular browser and the private windows browsing. I am not sure why they would be different. I use Windows 11 pro and installed the Firefox app. I have to use private browsing for some of my applications and can just use the regular window for the rest. Now I have missing bookmarks and it is a mess. Some are on one screen and some are on private browsing. As a note: I do not sign in with an account in the Firefox settings, nor should I have to. I do not like all the tracking and everything that happens when you have to sign in on a browser with an account. I should not have to do that for my bookmarks to work between the two windows. This is a real issue. I have Firefox 159.0 (64-bit).

In Firefox beta for android, it would be nice to have an "apply" button or a "checkmark ✔" button while doing anything inside the Bookmarks menu (moving a bookmark for example). Right now, to confirm the folder where to store the bookmark you need to press the "go back" arrow on the top left. And it's not very intuitive. It feels more like I'm cancelling the action, not applying it. Pressing enter on the keyboard also does not apply the action.

This category seemed the most appropriate from the list. Bookmarks are the first of 2 issues I need help with.

On my first start after upgrading to v158, all my bookmarks are missing, normally shown in a sidebar. All the suggested means of getting bookmarks back via a profile simply did not work: the restore panel asks for a file and all the various bookmarks in a profile are in a folder. the 2 did not mix. I do have exported bookmarks as a json file, but obviously it's hidden for FF, but not for explorer. Nothing recommended in the articles worked. In frustration, I removed the software and downloaded a new copy. Same issues applied. I copied the latest json file to the desktop, and restored it from there. AND after a restart, there were none of those bookmarks on the browser page. BUT selecting managing bookmarks and there they all are.

So how do I get the bookmarks from the management page to the normal user interface??

I am running win10 in the ESU program on this machine
