The edit feature on Safari bookmarks is missing with the new iPadOS 26.1. I can add folders and select bookmarks (which shows the “hamburger” to move them) but when I do, they just drop back to where they were in the list. Has anyone found a solution to this? Thank you.

Are you trying to reorder folders? If so, tap the “…” icon, tap Sort By and choose None. Then, in the sidebar, long-press a folder, move it around a bit (so that it stops displaying its content) and move it.
I can move bookmark folders this way on my iPad (iPadOS 26.1). Note that I’m using the Compact view.

It seems to be a complete mess. I can not bookmark to specific folders. Everything just dumps to the general bookmark folder. Then trying to move it to a specific folder, It will not drop in after dragging it there. I have not even tried adding a new folder, not worth the effort at this point.
I’d also like to know how to edit the bookmarks on an iPad. I thought that if I edit them on my MacBook they would sync with my iPad but that doesn’t seem to be the case any more!
