How to access desktop bookmarks in FF Android with 1 click?

I have successfully synced FF on my laptop with FF on my Galaxy 9+ Android phone, but when I want to access a desktop bookmark on my phone, it takes 4 steps - 1. Click on the 3 dots at the bottom - 2. Click on the Bookmarks star icon- 3. click on Desktop bookmarks. - 4. click on the bookmarks toolbar icon. Is there a way to just click on the 3 dots and make it go straight to step 4, by-passing steps 2 and/ or 3? A true sync should add all the bookmarks in the bookmarks bar on the laptop more directly to the main page or at least the bookmarks icon shouldn't it?, and this seems clunky.

Thanks, Richard

Hi

You could add a page to your top sites so that it appears on the Firefox for Android home screen or add it to the Android home screen as a direct shortcut.
