Fenix: Bookmarks should be displayed in a tree with directories and subdirectories

Created on 20 Jul 2019  Â·  3Comments  Â·  Source: mozilla-mobile/fenix

For years, I have been using a sometimes very deep tree of bookmarks. On the desktop, this tree is displayed similar to a file manager in the sidebar of Firefox. With Fenix ​​(and Firefox for Android on a tablet) you have to go blindly through the directories and subdirectories.
I would like Fenix ​​to display on a tablet a representation of the bookmarks in a tree with directories and subdirectories, with the branches closing as soon as they leave.

Hello

This will be great if also it implemented in mobile UI,

For me (as someone that heavily use bookmarking system) one of the biggest advantages of Firefox Desktop over chrome is its clean ui of bookmarks page. (one of the biggest reasons i switched from chrome to firefox was this)

But in both classic firefox for android (fennec) and firefox preview (fenix) when we add a new bookmark and edit it to change its folder the browser shows all folders open and it is really annoying/frustrating.

Please if may consider this on new firefox android (fenix) because it will make it far more enjoyable to use.

Thank you very much

This is my biggest complaint about the mobile browser. Please make the bookmark structure collapsible when saving/editing bookmarks.

It is a very confusing and difficult to navigate display of bookmarks in nested folders on mobile phones. This makes the app completely unusable for me. So much so that I uninstalled firefox the day after it was upgraded to 79.0.5, abandoning the browser for a more functional one.
