FF View Sync bar graph won't go past 33% on MacBook. Have had FF on MacBook and Android phone for years. FF is 106.0.1 on MacBook & macOS Monterey 12.6 and FF on phone is 106.0.1 but old Android phone won't go higher than 8.1.0. Must I re-install FF on phone?

Re-installing won't help you. Do you have Open tabs Sync enabled on both devices?

Thanks. I have it enabled on the MacBook Pro, but I don't find such a setting on FF on my Android phone. The phone claims to be syncing, but If so, why doesn't the Tab Pickup/Sync FF bar graph on FF on the Mac move past 33% yet?

Click menu -> Settings -> <your-email-address> -> and select Open tabs in your Firefox for Android

I have Bookmarks, History and Open tabs selected. I have not selected Credit cards for obvious security reasons, and I have not selected Logins because I use a separate pw manager. Despite these settings and both devices saying they're syncing, Firefox View>Tab Pickup>Sync Firefox... still says only 33%.

The other possibility is that the bar won't move because I don't have everything selected.

IDK, it should be enough.
