I-Firefox ye-Android Community Forum

I use Firefox Sync to see my desktop bookmarks on mobile (android) - the latest android update force-sorts all bookmarks alphabetically or time-wise, with no option to leave them in desktop order.

It is now very hard to find what I want in my painstakingly arranged bazillion bookmarks and folders and subfolders and so on...

Please restore the ability on mobile to leave the sort as it is on desktop. At least for the "desktop bookmarks" folder.

Thanks!

Android Collections feature needs work. 1. It's too easy to accidentally delete a bookmark from collections. Slight of hand and it's gone. Needs a confirm delete option. 2. Can't order or edit bookmarks in collections.

Windows 11 There is a way to go to a utility to sort bookmarks, but utility does not translate the sorted order back to the browser menu making it useless.

I reported this once before. I got an arrogant response saying: I'm just a volunteer here I can't do this. I don't have a bugzilla account. I have no way to report these to developers.

Suggested Fixes or upgrades.

1. 1: Way to disable auto zoom on android.

Have screen zoomed up manually to see screen content on android phone. Start typing phone zoomes in to close and can not see whole field or other important info on screen I had previously zoomed in to see. every time I zoom out to see again and start typing auto zooms back to where it it difficult. Makes it difficult to be productive fighting the auto zoom feature. would like to be able to disable it, if possible. would make my life much easier as I work away from home and have to use my phone for many tasks. Prefer Desktop to avoid these issues but situation is what it is.

1. 2: Fix sort order on Bookmarks (Have in My Manuel order of importance order on desktop), on Android (sorts alphabetically). difficult to locate bookmarks

Please add a bookmark setting to remove the counter in bookmark folders. Better still just remove it all together. It has made bookmarks harder to find and doubles the screen I have stuck to version 143.0 to avoid this

Moving a bookmark on Firefox on mobile device when opening the bookmark edit if you want to move a bookmark for example for Mobile bookmarks to Desktop bookmarks:

In my case I first click edit, click on the location and edit > Folder and I am showed unlike when I browse my bookmarks where folders are closed, all folders in hierarchy are opened which make for an endless scrolling for minutes trying to find the folder I want to move my bookmark to, as a poweruser who has thousands of folders and bookmarks.

There are ofher browsers where this is reversed and easier to move a bookmark because all folders are closed. Is this a feature that can be added to Firefox?

Also the setting saying you can display bookmarks on home screen, actually its a scrolling banner with most recently saved bookmarks. I miss the old classic Firefox where you could set your new tab and home page as your bookmarks list making it super easy and quick to get everything you need right in front of you without needing extra steps to enter your bookmark lists.

If this is not the right forum please direct me where I can forward this feature request

When adding a bookmark on Android, I used to be able to sort bookmark order within folders by custom sort, A-Z, and age. Recently (as of 148.0 (Build #2016144279)), the folder menu when adding a bookmark is now different, but the sort options no longer work.

I'm making a post here before making one on Mozilla Connect, in the hopes this bug can be passed on to a developer.

Hello Mozilla Firefox Support Team,

I would like to report an issue with bookmark management on Firefox for mobile.

On my phone, when I search for bookmarks using the bookmark search feature, I am unable to select multiple bookmarks at the same time (for example, by long-pressing or using multi-select). This makes it difficult to manage or delete several bookmarks at once.

This issue does not occur on Firefox Desktop, where multiple bookmark selection works as expected. The problem appears to be limited to the mobile version only.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Firefox on a phone. 2. Go to Bookmarks. 3. Use the search bar to find bookmarks. 4. Try to select multiple bookmarks.

Expected behavior: Ability to select multiple bookmarks in search results on mobile.

Actual behavior: Only one bookmark can be selected at a time.

Thank you for your time and support.

Best regards, MAS

Hello,

I noticed something that feels really inconvenient when working with many open tabs. Right now, when I try to bookmark multiple open tabs, there’s no simple way to select all of them at once. There’s no “Select All” option, so I have to manually pick each tab, which becomes frustrating if I have dozens of tabs open.

It would be very helpful to have a “Select All” checkbox or button when adding open tabs to bookmarks, so users could quickly save everything in one step.

This seems like a small feature, but it would make managing tabs much easier, especially for people who research a lot or keep many tabs open.

Thanks for your work on Firefox.

I have over 10,000 bookmarks in my bookmark library synced across my devices and this is invaluable for me to navigate the content that I need on the laptops that I use, but I can't use these tags that are critical for my search on Firefox Android. The feature simply doesn't exist yet on Android and this has been the case for quite a few years now.

Hi, When I click on "Bookmarks", I can see all of my personal folders listed there from A-Z. When I want to save a page, etc., and click on "Bookmark Page", my personal folders don't come up and I'm only able to save to the "Bookmarks" folder and not to a folder of my choice.

Thanks, very much, for your help in fixing this problem!

In latest version of firefox for android, 138.0.4 (Build #2016091471), when i touch the bookmarks menu an image flashes up too fast to see. I videoed the screen,slowed down replay and found the image is of a folder with a fox inside and the words "no bookmarks yet" which makes no sense as i have hundreds of bookmarks. Its irritating, how do i stop it?

Firefox browser on android phone. How can I restore my Bookmarks to their previous alphabetic order? They have changed from alphabetic to totally random order within each folder.
