I am experiencing a bug where subfolders do not appear in the "Select folder" screen. In the Bookmarks manager, my folders exist correctly. However, when I try to save a new bookmark, the "Select folder" screen only shows the root "Bookmarks" folder. Even if I tap the ">" icon to expand, the subfolders are not displayed. Device Info: App Version: 149.0a1 (Build #2016143751) OS: Android 12

I use collections and it's frustrating that we can't sort the links added as well as the collections themselves. It would be perfect if we were able to sort collections.

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.

Initially the bookmarks on Android started appearing in apparently random order after every quit/restart. I signed out of Laptop and Android, then signed in again and set up syncing again on both, but now the bookmarks on my Laptop no longer appear on Android at all, even after syncing.

Android 16 phone, Fennec v148.0.0

When I simply want to save the page I am on to my bookmarks, I press the Bookmarks icon, then I go to the destination folder, and there I have several icons but no option to save.

Hi, I need a way to transfer/export my bookmarks on my phone (Android) so I can import them to another browser. I don't have access to a computer any more, so that is not an option. Why doesn't Firefox let me export my bookmarks on my device? Why do I need a computer?

I can't do it one by one. It would take too long and I would miss something.

Could I log in to my Firefox account with another browser and get the bookmarks that way? And, no I don't have access to a computer any more. Is this normal for browser, is it the same problem on other browser as well?

What should I do? (no, I still don't have access to a computer)

Saving bookmarks from 'Tabs list' view is not same as saving bookmarks from webpage view.

1) It doesn't default to 'edit' option after saving but to 'view' option.

2) 'view' bookmark option from 'Tabs list' doesn't default to bookmarks &/ bookmark folder just saved, but to top level view, i.e. , 'Bookmarks' folder view.

3) Doesn't indicate previously saved tabs in the 'Tabs list' view.

_____Difficulties:

Points 1) & 2) above means that I can't easily edit the bookmarks I just saved. I have to remember or lookup where I saved a bookmark and then find the folder and then find the page(s) to edit the bookmark.

Point 3) from above means that I have to either reselect webpages I may already have bookmarked or lookup which ones I may have already saved and exclude them.

____Suggestion:

While saving bookmarks from 'tabs list' view:

i) Perhaps while saving bookmarks from 'Tabs list' , 'save in folder' option could be displayed.

ii) If 'save in folder' option is not displayed, atleast 'edit' option be displayed.

iii) If only 'view' option is displayed, then it should open up to the bookmark folder just saved with the bookmarks just saved highlighted.

_____ Thank you.

I foolishly upgraded to the latest Android mobile version. I like my bookmarks kept in the order I set them. Firefox, with the new version has decided they should be alphabetical once again. I have turned off this annoying behaviour in previous versions by disabling Compose Bookmarks in the secret settings. This option is no longer visible. How do I get my bookmarks back in the order want and stop firedox from screwing them up again?

What is this obsession the development team have with screwing up user bookmark organisation? This keeps coming back like a bad penny.

All of a sudden I am getting an "Invalid URL" error when trying to bookmark a website on Firefox mobile. I have tried pages with different extensions (.com, .org, .tv). I cleared the cache and restarted my phone. Did not work. I have the latest Firefox mobile 142.0.1 and a Samsung A25.

Hi,

My bookmarks in Firefox Android are not sorted as they are with my Firefox Linux and Firefox Windows. The problem started about 4 to 8 weeks ago.

What needs to happen to have Firefox Android sort my bookmarks the same way as my Firefox Linux and Firefox Windows, please?

Thanks, Stephen

When I bookmark a website and select edit, it does not show my created bookmarks to save too, nor can I move existing bookmarks to created folders, why not? I have to create a folder, then select all my existing important bookmarks and save them to the created folder. I can not later add any saved bookmarks to the created folder, why not? The Beta version has the same issue. Please make a change to allow for bookmark saving or moving to created folders. Thank you.
