I realize in a windows computer you could export from edge to a file i
Then Import to a windows Firefox syncing with the a Firefox account
Then it would show if you logged into wolvic with your Firefox account

But if the VR headset is a shared headset and you don't want Firefox logged into a particular Firefox account then you have to manually add the bookmarks by hand

Importing files requires #208 to be fixed first

I was reading issue #208 and although an interface for a file picker is not designed for the immersive environment when you are viewing a VR site what about when you are just viewing the webpage before enter a VR site. For instance

  1. go to google.com
  2. the page is not virtual
  3. click on wolvic settings
  4. there are a bunch of settings
  5. my suggestion is add one there so you can click import a text file before entering VR
  6. even in very limited fashion you could create a line in the menu to enter a web address for the file to import even without a file picker dialog.
  7. could this suggestion be classified as similar but not the same as Not possible to upload files #208?

So my suggestion is for before entering a VR website for the wolvice setting page which although is before you are in a full VR web site

The suggestion to add an interface in full VR website in #208 I think may be a seperate issue then what I am suggesting.

When you're on the let's call it 2D browser, that is also an immersive environment created by Wolvic. As you know Wolvic does not run in a window as the other native applications do. We already open a XR session to render the 2D browser and the Wolvic environment. That's why we cannot simply use android widgets to do this kind of things, they need some adaptations to be able to run in Wolvic's 3D environment.
