I love firefox mobile, however there is one element that drives me absolutely crazy while using it. I want to use the Homepage Shortcuts feature because I like the idea of pinning my most frequently used sites for easy access when I launch a new tab. HOWEVER the shortcuts screen decides that its a great idea to just list every website I have browsed on it. This is completely abysmal and clutters it up. It makes me shut this feature off completely and just use a black empty screen as my new tab page. Turning off the recently visited toggle makes ZERO difference. Please for the love of God fix this awful design decision and put the power of our homepage and new tab page back into the hands of the users. The sponsored ad thing was bad enough but maybe if people had more control of every aspect of what they get to see they might actually use the Homepage Shortcuts instead of disabling it entirely.

The Bookmarks in my android firefox don't appear despite i set it on in the start page settings. I tried turning the Bookmarks off and on - it didn't work, I tried deleting the Bookmarks and setting them back - it didn't work. Please help

I just switched to ff from chrome on both desktop and phone as well, and I was very pleased to discover how much ff has to offer. My question is: how do I see new news on the "News" panel which can be accessed from the home page on the right top (see pic attached). The contents are various, which is good and I understand I have to train it first to know my interests, which is not a problem. However, since installing (about a week ago) I have not seen anything new there. The pull to refresh is not working, there is no button I can press. I even thought I have to open them to sort of knock them out from the row, but that would be silly. But even after opening and reading the full article, upon returning to the panel, the same article is still there... 🤔 So, no news for me 😅 Is this a bug? Chrome got soo bloated with AI like Windows and has as many adverts like Facebook, so I looked for an alternative. Ff looked promising and after switching to Linux from Windows, it came as preinstalled browser. Ff is an old acquaintance, I have used it back in the time from since it was launched. Even then it was a better option, than Internet Explorer. We all get hijacked now and again to the new and shiny alternatives (hence the change to Cromer some time ago). But when the new and shiny is not so shiny anymore... Anyways, please help me out in where I'm missing something. The experience is very nice in any other way and extra medal for giving us the option to tailor AI features and not just cramming them down our throats. I am including a screenshot from the most recent chrome browser for Android to see the cramming and the layout. There a simple pull to refresh does the job.

Thank you for reading my rambling Kind Regards Zsanett

I set up a Collection to which I added several news websites. However, when I click on one of the websites, it takes me to the wrong site. Example: I have 5 sites saved: A, B, C, D. and E. When I click on A, it takes me to B. I have deleted the Collection several times and tried adding the same websites back into a new collection, but the same thing happens again. The same problem occurs to another Collection set up for some other websites. Thanks for any assistance!

I pinned 8 websites in my homepage shortcuts. After pinning, their icons were matching the websites. Like when I added Moneycontrol's website to shortcuts, its icon looked good, but after 1 day or a few hours its icon changed to "M". This has happened many times. I tried many different methods but I did not find a solution. I request you to please fix this. I really like your service, everything is good, just please fix this one thing.

I am experiencing an issue where my saved Collections are not appearing on the Firefox Homepage (New Tab page), even though they clearly exist in the system.

The Issue: When I attempt to add a page to a collection, the "Select collection" overlay correctly shows my existing categories: Read Later, News, and Gemini.

The Discrepancy: When I return to the Firefox Homepage, the Collections section is completely missing. Only "Shortcuts" are visible.

Troubleshooting done: I have verified that I have active tabs saved within these collections (as seen in the attached screenshots), but the homepage remains empty below the shortcuts.

Device Specifications:

• Firefox Version: 150.0.1 (Build #2016157687)
• Build ID: 094f3362dcbcefdce34f05b355607cdce06a4ef4
• GV: 150.0.1-20260427013024
• AS: 150.0.1
• OS: Android 16

When I set up Mozilla I set homepage to show Jump Back In. i later disabled this option and started pinning shortcuts.

I can’t remove two of the Jump In shortcuts that were left on the homepage.

Pls advise as they are really annoying !!

Last week my collections just disappeared from the home screen of Firefox. I used them as bookmark folders, so now it's quite inconvenient. Is it a bug or a new feature, how do I access my collection in Android?

Been trying to get stories on here for a bit now but the setting is gone as you can see in the screenshot From what I've seen online it should be there because I'm in the US and not using any vpns or anything like that and I've tried reinstalling, deleting the cache, messed w feature studies, and even tried the beta and nightly versions but got nothing different idk what's wrong all I know is I want to see them like I do on my iphone so any help is great

I have grouped tabs into different collections, but I have no way of accessing the collections. When I go to the tabs page and click on the + to get to the homepage, there are only 3 sections: Shortcuts, Jump Back In, and Bookmarks. I have looked at the customize section of the settings and unchecked "Stories" and anything sponsored, but there is no option in the customize section for "Collections" and there is no "Collections" section in the homepage, even though I can still save tabs in different collections.

I can also see the collections exist when I go to save a tab in a collection, because they pop up as possible collections for the new tab. I just have no way of accessing the collections after the fact.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Since having my Samsung android "mended" I've lost the Collections.

I save quite a lot of tabs for future reference or just as a keep for ideas, holidays etc.

I've read the 'answers' in a number of forums/Google and so on, but they don't address the problem fully - they all state the obvious: click on this, scroll down to that - we know, that's why we're asking where the devil have they gone?!

I would like very much if *someone* who isn't a bot to answer this please. I'm sure I speak for many of us who are fed up with stock answers. If you don't know, find out. That's your job surely?

I accidently deleted Firefox. When I reinstalled collections had disappeared. I can add a webpage to collections but no collections on the homepage. I have debug mode and set home screen default to control. Also disabled search bar. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. Any ideas?

Hello, I recently changed phone and after reinstalling Firefox I realised that collections are not visible on the homepage. To be clear, I'm aware they do not sync, I added everything manually and it worked just fine, they just don't appear below the shortcuts. I saw a few other posts on the matter, some were able to fix it by toggling some secret settings (which have been changed since as far as I can tell), someone recently had them reappear on their own, but I've had no such luck.

I downloaded the latest version of Firefox today on my phone. I am able to save and make Collections by holding down on tabs and selecting the option, but I do not see a Collections section on my homepage at all, meaning I can't edit or open them.

When v143 was released something happened to the shortcuts row(s). Regardless of refreshing efforts, rolling back versions, and searching the forums, there's no way to consistently get the shortcuts back. Sometimes they appear with a new browser instance, sometimes they don't. They don't appear with new tabs, and they don't stay when they do appear with a new browser. Grrrr. Please restore the shortcuts!
