I'm trying to view my mobile bookmarks on my desktop browser. I can see my desktop bookmarks on my mobile browser, and I'm able to see my mobile browser open tabs on my desktop browser so I know Sync is working. In my desktop bookmarks I don't see any 'Mobile Bookmarks' folder. I'm trying to find a way to edit my mobile bookmarks from either the desktop or mobile browser itself because as of right now there is no way to edit them, only add/remove bookmarks. Thanks for any help.

Currently on the Firefox for iOS the bookmarks created on the iOS device will not sync. Currently I have found my Mobile bookmark folders nested under the Desktop Bookmarks folder. Its not intuitive, but that is being worked on.

Also the editing of bookmarks can still only be done on a Desktop. Check if there is a Mobile bookmarks folder after attaching an Android device to the account on the Desktop.

I hope this helps.

On my iOS device I can see a "Mobile Bookmarks" folder under the Bookmarks icon, but that folder doesn't show up on my desktop Firefox even after syncing from both my desktop and mobile browser. Strange thing is, I do have mobile bookmarks, but none of them show up in that "Mobile Bookmarks" folder at all, it's just a empty folder. They only show up under the Bookmarks icon. Also, I'm unable to attach my iPhone to my desktop Firefox, I see no option, and I don't have a Android smartphone to try this with.

I'm just going to let it be for now and chalk this up as Firefox for iOS being new and not everything is worked out yet. I'm hoping after some user feedback and time Firefox for iOS will mature.
