In several instructions in reference to bookmarks and history, there is mention, even screen shots or videos of the Firefox button at the top of the page which gives muck of the same access as the Tools menu on desktop Firefox. I can't see that button.

My actual problem is that I'm trying to clean up the "top sites" list which seems to be every site i've visited. I would like to clear it since I haven't found any use for it. I just use bookmarks, which I've sort of learned to manage.

This is 10.0.6 running on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 under Android 4.0.4

You currently can't cleanup the top sites on mobile.

Well, that's a bugger! Hopefully they'll add that feature, and "Clear Browser History" as well.

The "Firefox button" to which I was referring was in a video about managing history that I got to from the Mobile/Support web page, but it really seems like it's more about the desktop version than the mobile version.

Just another instance of lack of good documentation.
