Hello.Bookmarks cant be imported from sd card.I tried many times.A message pops up saying bookmarks.html need to be placed in SD card ,every time i try to import bookmarks from bookmarks.html placed in SD card allready. Other issue is with settings that cant be saved or memorised by the app.I have to tick the 3rd party cookies manually for every page.

Re bookmarks - bookmarks.html has to be in the root of your SD card. Did you give SWeb storage access permission? You can do it from Android's settings page for SWeb (not within SWeb itself).

Re 3rd party cookies - this is by design. The setting is active for the current tab, so if you enable them on some page, then navigate to a different page in the same tab, 3rd party cookies should still be enabled on that other page. But if you open a new tab, the setting will revert to the default (off). Note that 3rd party cookies are disabled by default in Chrome too, and Google is planning to phase them out all altogether.

What phone model do you have? Do you have an external SD card? If so, please move bookmarks.html to the internal storage (which historically is also called "SD card" on Android). I think in most cases the directory should be /storage/emulated/0, but it depends on the phone.

Hello. Moving bookmarks.html to /storage/emulated/0 allowed me to import bookmarks without problem. Thank you for the help. Sweb is very good browser.
