Transferring tabs

I’m trying to transfer my iPhone Firefox tabs (All 100+ of them) to my Mac laptop Firefox. I have already signed in before and I would really like some other way to transfer tabs than to tediously click every tab from the Firefox account drop down menu. The Firefox help page for setting up sync don’t help since I still need to click every one of those tabs from the drop down menu. If there is something I’m missing about the process can someone please explain it to me, and it would be greatly appreciated if someone to help me find a way to transfer my tabs all at once.

Another tedious method, but with fewer clicks, is to use the Synced Tabs sidebar on your Mac. On Windows, it's

(menu bar) View > Sidebar > Synced Tabs

Hopefully it's easy to find on Mac as well.

Ref. Use the Firefox Sidebar to access bookmarks, history and synced tabs

If you are a slightly hackerish person, another option would be to run a script that builds a bookmark list from all of your Synced Tabs in a single step. You then can either open it in a tab and use it to launch any individual link you like, or import it into your bookmarks.

And if needed: Import Bookmarks from an HTML file
