Hi, did you use the sync option in Firefox. That would save your shortcuts. Other than that I am not sure that can get them back. Have you updated both your FF app and your OS lately?

Would the sync option save my shortcuts that are on my phones home screen? If so how do I get them back on my home screen? They the OS and app are upto date.

Hi, it should save them somewhere but not sure where. The nearest information I could find was recovery of bookmarks, so you could try this.

Recover lost or missing Bookmarks

Let us know if that works.
