I have just had to restore my (numerous and carefully curated) bookmarks from an auto backup on my PC (Running FF Quantum 68.0 (64-bit)). (Because; Suddenly yesterday afternoon they were all scrambled and the JSON file went from my usual 460Kb to 1,440Kb with thousands of apparently random bookmarks). So, having first turned off Sync on the iPad, I fixed the bookmarks on the PC but now how do I fix them on the iPad? I don't want to sync the rubbish version that is still on the iPad with the fixed file version because it's, well, sync & not restore so I will end up with a good file synced with all the rubbish. I need to delete the rubbish on the Pad, or restore from the same backup file but I can't see how to achieve that.

Hi,
Since the ios update on the 17th July 2019, the Hide Images option does not work. Firefox ios v 18.1 (15719) Steps to reproduce: 1. Start FF 2. Settings -> enable Hide Images 3. Open any website. 4. All images are loaded and displayed 5. Settings -> Toggle Hide Images : Result Images are hidden. 6. Open new tab with Hide Images enabled -> Images are loaded and displayed.
In other words, I have to load a site with images first before I can hide the images, which defeats the purpose. Before the update I could open sites with Hide Images enabled and the images did not display ( and I hope were not downloaded).
My mobile data plan is back to being raped, and I've stopped surfing, because I only used Firefox because I have a 500Mb mobile data plan per month.
Is this a known problem or an intentional change/Feature?
Regards, S.

I have keywords associated with some of my bookmarks in Firefox, and on the desktop they work great. They were working great on the mobile app for a while too, but that stopped several weeks ago. I don't know exactly when.
That is, I have a bookmark pointing to https://law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/%S. I associate that with the keyword usc. On desktop Firefox, if I type "usc 18/1001" into the address bar, I go directly to https://law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/1001. But on mobile Firefox, my query gets passed to my default search engine (DuckDuckGo), so I get search results from DDG instead. This makes me sad.

This worked forever until a few hours ago. I am visually impaired, so my Ipad pro has large fonts turned on. When I click on Your Library, I used to have the window go to full size so I could look through my bookmarks. Now that window is the size of the sidebar and the bookmarks are unreadable at Large fonts. This so far continues work fine on my Iphone 6s. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox but it still doesn't work.
