Hi

This support article should help you to add a shortcut to your Firefox for Android homescreen:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/customize-firefox-home-screen#w_add-a-site-to-your-shortcuts

Please remember that you can add 16 shortcuts, you can swipe them from right to left to see the second set of eight shortcuts.
