Hello,

Could you please specify your problem? Are you trying to get to the "awesome screen" (firefox home on android) If so, you just close your current tab or open a new tab. To do this, tap the top left of your screen in Firefox. This is to the left of the back button. Now you either slide down a tab to close it, or tap the "+" sign at the top left while at your tab area. And also, there is no exact home button while in Firefox for android, only in desktop Firefox (at least there used to be). Hope this helps in some way!

Thanks for getting back to me. I want to be able to set a search engine or my email login page to come up on start up. I have now internalized there is not a Home Page button. Unless you can tell me a better way I will have both URLs in my bookmarks and select one before I leave Firefox.

By the way I found this from 2012 on the Forum: Request: "I am very annoyed that Firefox Mobile opens to the last page visited. I ALMOST NEVER want to go to that page on startup. In fact it's a big pain especially when that page happened to be one that TOOK FOREVER to load. Removing the home page on startup feature was a GIANT step backward in usability. PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE. Put this feature back in." Reply: "we are working on it! !t will be fixed in the upcoming updates.Thank you"

There are several other requests along similar lines.

If you would like to have a search engine be your"homepage" when you first open Firefox, you might have to always keep your preferred search engine in an open tab, like www.google.com . You will have to do some work to keep it open, like making sure that that search engine was the last tab you had open before quitting Firefox. Now, go to settings--customize--tabs--and make sure that it is set to "always restore". Now, if you had any tabs open before you quit Firefox that you didn't close, the last one will open up and can technically be your"homepage". Now you can open up your email login page too, as long as it was on the open tabs in your firefox. Hope this helps some!
