Cannot find a way to rearrange pinned shortcuts in android. Nor a way to prevent history shortcuts to keep showing up along with the pinned shortcuts.

I recently downloaded Firefox on my Android device. It's been fine. However today, there was an issue. I have the settings set on my phone so bookmarks appear on the homepage. However, today, for some reason, the bookmark on the homepage was glitched. I'm not sure why, but I figured I just had to reset it. So I go rid of the bookmark on the homepage, and redid the bookmark. It was working again, but now, the bookmark isn't appearing on the homepage anymore. It's just a blank homepage, even though my settings are still the same. I've turned the settings on and off, reset fire fox, cleared cache, and the bookmark still isn't showing up. Pleas help me.

Hi! I recently migrated from Chrome to Firefox and everything is OK except for homepage shortcut icons. They load when I open the sites again but dissappear again after a day or two. Is there anyway to fix this? Thanks a lot

Hi, this issue has been present for a long time for me, and with many versions of Firefox Nightly for Android.
I'm always using the latest nightly for browsing Youtube only, with a set of specific settings and addons (since we can't use profiles on Android yet)
My problem is I've configured the Homepage to never show anything but a few URLs I chose to pin, you can see my settings and my homepage in the screenshots attached.
Despite the "Recently visited" setting being disabled, sometimes, but not everytime, the last pages I visited are added to the Homepage, after the pinned sites. I have no idea what triggers it or not, if I'm doing something wrong or if it's a bug.
Thanks for your help !
In the desktop version you can pin 32.
I removed all other elements from the home screen.
Thank.
I set Shortcuts to display as a list a few minutes ago, but it reverted to icons, and I can not find that setting again.
Thanks

I have used Firefox since late 2004, and nothing else. No problems until now.
Android 14 and Firefox mobile I think version 123.
It is updated. When I'm on a website, like USPS and accessesed Informed Delivery, I tell Firefox to Add To Home screen so I can quickly access mail and packages coming today.
Has always worked fine. Now, none of my manufacturered/created Firefox shortcuts will do anything. I cleared the Firefox cache, and forced stopped. I don't know if cleaning the data or reinstalling the whole app will help.
I then deleted data and uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but nothing changed.
I tried earlier versions but got a notification off it wasn't compatible with my version on Android.
I'm recovering from a stroke and these lost shortcuts stored on my homescreen were vital to communicating with my doctors, therapists, outpatient rehab, hospitals, etc. I'm lost without them.
Any suggestions or reasons for this are appreciated.
Thank you

How to rearrange pinned shortcuts on homepage of firefox android?
I couldn't drag and drop to rearrange pinned shortcuts.
When I add a website to the homepage (Android) the site it glitches out when accessed from the homepage. When accessed from the browser it's fine.
Can't remove sponsored shortcuts using your specific instructions.

When Adding a Shortcut to the Android Home Screen, it allows you with a pop-up option to Rename the Shortcut before placing it on your Home Screen.
However, when attempting to Install a Progressive Web App (from compatible Web App web sites), and clicking Install, it does NOT give you the opportunity to Rename the Shortcut.
In contrast, Chrome/Android allows the name change in both cases (non-Web App and Web App sites).
Is this feature in the works on FireFox Android?
Is there a work-around to Rename Shortcuts either before or after placing them on the Home Screen ?

Favicons for shortcuts added to the startpage do not persist. In other words, when I add a shortcut to the startpage, the shortcut initially displays the expected favicon for the respective site. However, when I leave the startpage and then come back, the shortcut favicons are no longer displayed. Instead, the shortcut is simply a colored box containing the first letter in the name of the website. I have already tried the prosaic troubleshooting meaure of deleting the app cache (to no avail), and I am using the most up-to-date version of Firefox on Android. Any other ideas, or is this a bug?

While adding a website shortcut to my home screen on Android, I changed the name (to be shown on the home screen). I later decided to use a slightly different name, so I removed the shortcut and added it again, entering the new name. Nevertheless, the shortcut is now always added with the original custom name. This is also the case when I leave the name unchanged in a later attempt. I get the same results with multiple sites. I get the same results after closing Firefox, restarting my phone and emptying the Firefox cache. Even thought the shortcut on the home screen is probably not actually a bookmark, I tried bookmarking the site, and changing the name of the existing bookmark - with the same results. Is there a way I can choose a different name for the home screen shortcut, or this a bug? Background: I am now manually adding shortcuts to my home screen after getting a new phone (Pixel 7a). I had have mostly the same shortcuts on my previous phone (Pixel 3a XL). The shortcuts were kind-of(!) transferred to my new phone: they appear in the same home screen folders as on my old phone, but gray. When I try to open them, I get the message: "Couldn't restore shortcut because app doesn't backup and restore". Is there a way to transfer (all) home screen shortcuts? If not, please consider adding support for backup or automatic migration.
