When I open my bookmarks on Android or iOS it always defaults back to the top level of my bookmarks. I often read pages that are located under the same bookmark folder. It would be nice if Firefox would remember the bookmark folder I used last.

Thx

It's very difficult to say I'm not an idiot, right now... I was having problems deleting my Google search history. It wouldn't give me an option for all or today or anything.

I went to delete my Firefox search history and had no intention of deleting my bookmarks, nor my collections.

I had saved many things related to my stroke recovery that apparently are now a devastating loss.

I don't see any option for import or Recovery. I intentionally never synced to my PC.

I don't think there is any hope to recovery the losses.

Any suggestions are appreciated, but going forward from this point.... PLEASE tell me how to properly backup ALL my Firefox information... Mainly my bookmarks and collections and how to avoid whatever I accidentally chose that caused my loss of bookmarks and collections.

I can't tell you the shock and now profound sadness that this has caused. My stroke recovery IS my life and the information and sources were vitally important to me on a daily basis.

Thank you for any help, whatsoever. I'm just in disbelief, and it's nobody's fault but my own. I may have just been too fatigued during the process.

Isn' there better, direct ways to reorder bookmarks?

Why can we be allowed to simply drag and drop each bookmark in the order of what we see important not in the order added?

If I am missing something, please kindly educate me. As far as I am doing, I havee to opep all taps, delete and readd what I want to see first.

This is really annoying whenever I come across couple of new sites and need reorganization.

Or, should I hook it up with my pc browser to do bookmark management.

I ask firefox, but they've ended up sending me here. Hope someone's got a good soulution.

Thank you.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/add-web-page-shortcuts-your-home-screen indicates that to add a bookmark to my Android home screen, I should navigate to the desired website, open the three dot menu and click on "Add to Home screen." I have successfully done this in the past. But now the option is missing from the menu. I am using Firefox Daylight V 91.1.0. The option still shows up and works in my Andriod Chrome, but not in my Android Firefox Thank you in advance for your ideas.

Botched Android bookmark backup

I have no idea how or when my Android got an old version of my bookmarks, but they've been somewhat useful though more and more out of date. They don't sync, and I've never seen instructions that are clear enough to feel confident trying. I finally tried tonight and botched it pretty badly. Instead of my Android syncing with my desktop bookmarks, my desktop suddenly contained a whole bunch of old bookmarks, but they didn't exactly match the old set on my phone either. And now my phone has some very new bookmarks, but it also has folders I long ago deleted that WERE NOT THERE before I tried to sync today. So I have no clue obviously.

I did just revert to yesterday's backup on my desktop ... but that doesn't fix my Android. Can someone help me sync ONCE in the right direction and then set this to happen automatically going forward?

Hey people,

in a prev version it was possible to open a bookmark from the list, press the back buttonn on the phone and be back in the bookmark list.

This is not possible in the newest version.

Or is there another way to do that, or did i missed a setting?

Thanks and sunny greatings from Vienna.

Hi I've just changed phones and I'm trying to customise my Firefox homepage to how it was on my old phone. I select a bookmark, click on the option to add to the home page, give it a title and it confirms that it's been added to the home page. But when I return to the home page, the shortcut is not there. Am I doing something wrong?
