Sync between iOS devices not working

I’m running Firefox on an iphone with iOS 13 and an iPad with iPadOS 13. These are my two primary devices. 

I’m logged in to Firefox on both with my Firefox login.  I have notifications and background app refresh turned on for Firefox on both devices.  I have both devices set to share Bookmarks, History and Open Tabs.

I was able to send tabs from one device to another.

I can also see tabs and bookmarks between my iphone and a rasberrypi running Firefox. However, my iPad can not see history, tabs or bookmarks between either my phone or the raspberrypi.

Please help. This is so annoying that I actually went and used safari for a bit. And clearly that’s not optimal.

    • Solved**. reinstalled Firefox on iPad. (Thought I’d done that before.)

Thanks.
