1. make it possible to synchronize the collections

2. give collections to Firefox desktop and make it synchronizable with Firefox mobile too. 

Microsoft Edge offers both suggestions!

Please add this feature. The tabs UI in android is better than chrome, but it could be even better with this feature.

Please add also export of all the collections to a single file - e.g. in html format

i just got a new phone and i am in the process of moving my collections from my old phone to my new phone

if collections were synchronized in my Firefox account, i would not need to copy them manually

Firefox has a few special bookmarks folders which each have their own place in the browser UI:

  • bookmarks toolbar
  • bookmarks menu

synchronising collections could be solved simply by making "collections" one of these special bookmarks folders, which shows up in the collections area of the browser UI.

this folder could also have these unique restrictions to ensure they're used for collections and not for normal bookmarks:

  • it's not possible to create bookmarks directly in the collections folder, only in its subfolders
  • it's not possible to create more than 1 layer of subfolders in the collections folder

this way, collections can still show up as a separate entity in the browser UI but re‑use a lot of bookmarks code

Why introduce a feature like that if we won't be able to sync? I just bought a new phone but I can't bring my collections from the old phone. That's just absurd. If I knew collections were synchronizable I would have just used bookmarks.

Mozilla, will you just pull the finger out and introduce this feature.

I have been committed to Firefox for years for my personal browsing, but being exposed to Collections in Edge while at work, this is becoming a harder choice each and EVERY day.

This is one of the best browser usability features introduced in years, beating Bookmarks hands down and saving my computer from the death of a thousand tabs.

And the fact you have it on the mobile version - 😤.

Regards,

Paul.
