Description of the issue:
2 main Bookmarks issues in Brave mobile browser:
-
when a site is already bookmarked, it does not appear so. When I click “add bookmark”, it adds a new bookmark instead of editing the existing one. This makes it hard to edit a bookmark title, or to know if I already bookmarked a site or not. It also adds multiple copies of bookmarks when I click add bookmark, instead of just one.
This is not normal behaviour for desktop Brave, nor for other mobile browsers. -
When I add a bookmark, it does not add to the previous folder I had bookmarked in. This is the normal behaviour in the Desktop (and of Chrome). Not bookmarking to the previously saved-to folder forces me to select the desired folder each time I add a bookmark. Pretty annoying.
FYI I am using Brave bookmark sharing between my mobile and my desktop.
How can this issue be reproduced?
- Any time I try to add a bookmark ok mobile.
- Any time I want to edit a bookmark.
- Any time I want to check if I have already bookmarked this site before
Expected result:
-
If I have already bookmarked a site, it should indicate that visually when I press the “…” button. Instead of saying “add bookmark”, it should say “edit bookmark”, as it does for all other mobile browsers.
OR, at least there should be a visual indicator showing it is already bookmarked. In the Desktop version, the bookmark button on navigation icon is shown as solid black instead of an outline. -
When I add a bookmark, it should automatically go to the folder of the last bookmark I added. If I want to change the folder, that is an option, but the default should automatically do this. This is what the desktop version of Brave does, as well as Chrome mobile.
-
When a site is already bookmarked and I click on add bookmark or edit bookmark, it should not create a new bookmark. Instead it should edit the existing one. (This is the behaviour in Brave desktop when I press Ctrl-D).
Since this behaviour is different from Bravr desktop (and Chrome mobile), I assume it’s a bug.
