Firefox for iOS Support Forum

I installed the newer version of Firefox on Feb. 4, 2024, and nothing from the older version carries over to the new version. How do I migrate bookmarks and history from an older version of Firefox to a newer version, please?

I have Firefox on my desktop and iPad and both are synced. I love Firefox on my desktop but, honestly, I have to continue to use Safari on my Ipad because the iOS version of Firefox is nowhere near as good. One of my biggest obstacles to converting to Firefox on my iPad is trying to save bookmarks so I can access them on my desktop. When I bookmark a page on my iPad I cannot find it's location on my desktop. Can you please advise where Firefox places bookmarks that are saved on my iPad. Thanks

Dear Firefox community,

in the bookmarks page on iOS devices, Why can't we swipe back to the previous state and we have to press the previous arrow, Is it an issue or just something else?

Would want to make this post along time ago but I thought users and developers would notice it.

really appreciate it

best regards,

I find the process of adding bookmarks really difficult. I have a ton of them and I need to keep them organized, so I have to add them to the correct folder when I make them. So on mobile, I have to go to the menu, tap add, quickly tap the "edit" button before it goes away, navigate out of mobile bookmarks to desktop bookmarks, scroll past every single folder and subfolder I have (there are a lot) and finally get to save my bookmark. Then, when I find something else I want to remember in the same category, I have to do the same 6-step process because the browser doesn't automatically navigate to the last folder I saved to. If anyone knows of a way to make the process shorter I would be very grateful.

I would LOVE to see the option to either

• save bookmarks to the last selected location
• or to set a different default location than „mobile bookmarks“

The background d is that I usually never want to save to mobile bookmark folder, and almost exclusively use the bookmark bar or even a specific „sort“/„inbox“ folder in it.

Is there a way to achieve this on iOS already?

I finally decided to download Firefox for IOS on my Iphone. once it downloaded I told it to sync, including Bookmarks. When I select Bookmarks from the menu (hamburger) I only see the entries from my Bookmarks Toolbar. The vast majority of my Firefox Bookmarks are in my Bookmarks Menu. Did those not sync, or are they on my Iphone but for some reason they aren't being displayed? If it's important, my main computers are Windows based (one is an old Windows 7 running the latest IESR the other is Windows 11 running a current version of Firefox for Windows) If I'm looking in the right place, my Iphone has Firefox 124.2.

I have set up two bookmarks, both for the same financial institution, one for my wife, and one for myself. It appears that the system has copied the card numbers from the first one, and put them into the second one, so that we can only get access to her cards, not mine, no matter which bookmark we use.

I have a similar problem with saved passwords. They go into the directory with whatever name the organization uses, which isn't always useful. "login.live..." appears several times, and I have to sign in to each of them in turn, to find the one I need. How can I re-name them to something useful?

Your response to me sucks. It's uninformative at best and non-sense at best. No wonder you don't have people to speak with. I'd rather use another browser that's credible!

Safari on an iPhone has the ability add a bookmark to the iphone home screen which makes organizing and getting to the desired bookmark easy. I would like to use Firefox instead of Safari but it doesn't appear that Firefox on iOS on an iphone has the ability to add a bookmark to the iPhone home screen. Is that correct? Or am I not doing something correctly.

I feel like most browsers let you chose that any new tab you open will be either blank, a specific page, or your favorite bookmarks, but I haven’t figured out how to do this in Firefox yet. It’s very annoying, and if it’s not a functionality yet I hope they will add it soon. It’s been around for ages in other browsers, I can’t believe it doesn’t seem to be a choice in Firefox?

I am having major problems trying to get Firefox to run on my iPhone.

I use it as my primary browsers on my MacBook and all my bookmarks are syn from Safari.

On my iPhone Safari has been my only browsers

I have been trying to use Firefox but can NOT get Book Marks or passwords to load or transfer either from the iPhone safari or Mac Book FireFox

HELP this is crazy and must be an easy answer

Sincerely a frustrated FireFox iPhone user

How do I show Firefox bookmark toolbar on my iPad Pro, that I setup on my iMac? Is there some other way to access all my bookmarks I’ve set up in Firefox on my iMac?
