Every time I start Firefox the Firefox welcome window starts alone with the window I want as my home page. The Firefox welcome window is not in my default home page command. Can any one help.

Chosen solution

There is no home page in Firefox for Android. That being said there is a way to get the same effect.

  • Make sure that the page is in your history
  • Tap in the address bar
  • Search for the history item
  • Long press on the history item
  • Select "Add to home screen"
  • Use this bookmark shortcut to launch Firefox.
