Android - Exporting settings in a Firefox-based browser?

Mull hasn't been working in the last update so I'm trying to downgrade without losing my settings, but that requires me to delete the app first then reinstall. Is there a way to backup/export my settings?

Edit: I bit the bullet and reinstalled Mull after deleting it 🤕

  • If you have root access, you could search for the files and copy them to your internal storage.

    • Very good idea, but unfortunately I don't have root (damn Huawei)

  • Hey quick question, what didn't work? I had it sometimes getting unresponsive and freeze. Sorry I don't know about the export/import.

    • Literally nothing works. As in, hitting Go after entering anything into the URL bar does nothing (including search suggestion), clearing cache also hangs, "sharing" a link to it is like inputting it in the URL bar (i.e. does nothing)

      I'm not sure what the problem is & when it appeared, but I roughly correspond it to the last update.

  • The only thing that comes to my mind is the sync-option, which is supposed to work with forks as well. But of course you'd need a Mozilla/ Firefox-Account for this. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/sync-custom-preferences

    • I was hoping I'd avoid this. Alas, thanks for the help.
