Hi, When any other app in my device uses the browser to open a tab instance within the said app itself, there is no option to add to bookmarks. The only options available are - 1. To move back and forward 2. Reload the page 3. Open in Firefox 4. A toggle for the Desktop site I personally add a lot of such links to my bookmarks for further reading and it would be a huge help if an option of "Add to bookmarks" could be added to the options there. Google Chrome has an implementation of what I'm talking about and you could just look to that for inspiration.

Firefox Sync loaded all of my Bookmarks 4 times so I have this huge list of bookmarks. I want to delete them all and start over. How do I do this without doing it one by one? Also, is there a way to open bookmarks straight from the menu instead of going through several menus to get there.

First off it set the search bar and menu at the bottom of the screen and I didn't know how to change that. Then I couldn't sync with all my account passwords and bookmarks previously saved on other apps. I had to delete the app because the idea of privacy is great and all but I need to get access to my preferred websites and accounts easily. If you can provide an easy fix I will give the app another try.

Thanks.

Hi

I have installed firefox on my Samsung S 6 tablet (bought 2022). I can't get Firefox to show a task bar (or bookmarks menu - but the bookmarks do exist from sync) and I can't add in 1password. I synced with my desktop (where firefox and 1 password work perfectly well) and tried everything I can from online suggestions - but either they haven't worked or some of the settings they refer to don't exist in the Android version of firefox. 1 Password - which is also installed on the device - does not show up in the list of add ons accessed via the Firefox 3-dot menu; and doesn't show up either if 1 password is open or closed . I've wasted hours on this and getting nowhere. Any help would be appreciated

Thankyou RC

So a couple days ago I got Firefox for android and looks great but. But after some time I had over 50 tabs open. I have a few bookmarks that I use frequently. So it's very easy to tab the address bar and select the bookmark that I want, browse and then rinse and repeat. The problem that I have with Firefox is that my bookmarks always open in a new tab instead of the current one.

I can't seem to find the right setting and browsing for about:config also doesn't seem to do anything.

Does anyone have some tips?

Thanks in advanced

Currently there's no way to import/export bookmarks from/to file, while in the desktop version it always has been possible. It seems Mozilla does not want this basic feature in mobile app, why? Many users are asking this since forever! Thank you

I cannot get Firefox to sync my bookmarks to to my new android. Other things are syncing so I know sync is working it just will not sync the bookmarks. I have tried everything. I have checked my sync settings a dozen times. I've signed out and signed back in on both devices. I have even uninstalled on both devices while signed out and reinstalled and still I cannot get the bookmarks on my phone. Please help! It's a Galaxy s21 and I am on windows 10

Dear Firefox-Team, I want to install my Bookmarks from HTML, not via the Firefox-Sync (I have different bookmarks on different devices), on my new cell phone (Firefox Android). This was obviously possible in 2017 when I did so on my old smart phone, but it seems to be impossible under my new one. Any tipps?
