I wish I could have the same Bookmarks I use in the Desktop toolbar on my start page in iOS. Safari does this the right way. I see no use in having separate pins on the mobile device. In general the bookmarks should work more like those on the desktop. There is absolutely no need to have a separate "Mobile Bookmarks" folder. The iOS version also has a reading list, which doesn't seem to be synchronized in any way.

I have seen quite a few different posts/websites that mention the fact that this option was removed from Firefox for iOS/iPadOS with no mention (or knowledge of) if it will return in future updates.  I would like to see the same, but I am not expecting this update anytime soon, unless part of a larger update.

The lack of this feature (coupled with the separate mobile bookmarks) are what prevent me from using FF beyond dev work. I rely on bookmarks to do everything. Safari and Vivaldi are both tops, imho, re: that. If FF improve on that note I'm in totally. Otherwise I have to keep it at arm's length.

Hi,

That's exactly what I was looking for, I use firefox on windows 11 and I would love to use firefox on mobile as well if the homepage had the bookmarks that I have on the pc homepage, just like what happens with safari. Hopefully this possibility will be included soon

Why can't Firefox sync everything? Bookmarks toolbar, tabs, passwords, everything? Including the layout, and sync all open tabs to all devices. It shouldn't matter what device I'm using; please sync the bookmarks toolbar from the desktop to my iPad and iPhone.

Hey @SCT, there's a similar request for that here: Save All Settings When Sync

At least put the bookmark access icon on the toolbar next to the home icon

Adding on to this - would also like full bookmark management features on mobile, including adding and editing tags, moving easily between folders, etc. especially for iPad. It’s a big screen, and current bookmark experience is very limited. 

Thank you.

Also add the feature on ios and ipad os that displays the bookmarks/bookmark folders on the top just as desktop. if you got more simply make 2 or 3 rows. this would be a real handy feature

Especially on iPad, a bookmarks toolbar would be extremely useful.

Lack of toolbar on my iPad makes using Firefox on it very poor. I only installed on my iPad to have the toolbar currently shared between my work desktop, home desktop and home laptop appear.

Seems such a simple user expectation has been overlooked or left out. I’ll just stick to Safari on my iPad for now I guess.

@RyGa - agreed. I have already started using duck duck go to see if that works better - AND waiting for the Desktop version of DDG as well, which should be available before the end of the year.

Any progress on this? Seems pretty simple concept.
