I have successful setup the sync configuration on my desktop firefox and on my mobile (android) one.

From my android i can see tabs on my desktop. But how the hell can i acces to my mobile tabs on my desktop browser in a user-friendly way ??

Dont tell me the "about:sync-tabs", please guys if you implement something, include the thing on the UX of the browser...

So, is there any way? :(

Hello,

On the History menu there should be a menu item "Tabs from other computers".

This opens the about:sync-tabs page.

Alternatively you could bookmark that page and store the bookmark in the bookmarks bar to give you a convenient button to open the page.

Ther is no such menu item on history....Sure i can bookmark that page, but why there is an easy place on the mobile versions and not on the desktop version which is the most developed O_o

Sorry - I didn't explain clearly enough.

I don't have a linux machine to hand for taking a screenshot but the menu item is here:

or here:

So not in the main History pop-out screen.

I hope that helps.
