Greetings, Is there a way to permanently save bookmarks (synced from my PC) to an SD card on my Android tablet, in lieu of them being accessed/downloaded/saved each time from your sync-server? I'd prefer my valuable bookmarks to be saved to & accessed from MY mobile device rather than from YOUR cloud server, each time I bootup the Firefox for Android app (which I so love!)

Is it too much to ask for the same accessibility/privacy I have over my Windows Firefox bookmarks to have with my Android Firefox boomarks? Thanks a bunch!, Bruce

Hi Bruce

Thank you for your feedback and support, we do appreciate it.

It is currnely not possible to download your bookmarks to a SD card on your Android device. It is also worth considering that Firefox Sync is not a cloud backup type service - it is designed to Sync with another copy of Firefox. As such it sends bookmarks and other data to the service to downloaded on another copy of Firefox.
