Searching Bookmarks Problem

more options

I have hundreds of Bookmarks, each loaded into separate Folders and ordered in my own way. But a normal 'Bookmark Search" only brings up the saved webpages and not the Folders my Bookmarks are saved in - so this doesn't help me. For instance I searched for 'Glasses' and got 52 hits - probably all in one Folder, but WHICH FOLDER ?

Hope you can help me.

There is not any way to view the bookmarks folder structure when doing a search in Firefox for Android. You can use the bookmarks view to navigate through the folder structure to get to the bookmarks you want. To use the bookmarks view you can tap on the word "Bookmarks" from the Firefox home screen.

Thanks kbrosnan for reply. But I'm using an iMac, and wonder if that makes any difference ?

There's no built-in feature for this. You could use an extension such as:
