Since Firefox sync has been having problems, I thought I would simply write my desktop bookmarks to a JSON file, copy them to my Android phone, then import them into Firefox. As far as I can tell, there is no method for doing this! I can import bookmarks from Android, but not from Firefox?

I'm not sure it works like that but you can export FF bookmarks as HTML and then import through mobile?

NOT SURE IF IT WORKS FOR MOBILE
