Bookmarks not syncing with iPhone

The bookmarks I save on my desktop app don’t show up on my iPhone app. History etc all shows up, but not bookmarks. Bookmarks also sync without a problem to my iPad app. And yes, bookmarks are ticked to be synced. I’ve reinstalled all apps. I’ve then deleted my Firefox account and opened a new one. Still, no bookmarks on the iphone. Can you help me?

Two things to check:

  1. Make sure both devices have Bookmarks enabled to sync then instruct both devices to manually sync in the event the auto sync didn't happen right away.
  2. Also make sure that your iPhone is looking at the same Bookmarks folder as your desktop. For example, your iPhone may be looking in the Mobile Bookmarks folder when you view your bookmarks on your phone. You may need to navigate around the folders if you have any.

Does this help?
