At one point this used to work, but it seems to have stopped working recently.

I use the Send to Device feature frequently, but certain share combos don't seem to work at all.

What works:

  • iOS Firefox to desktop
  • iOS Safari to desktop
  • iOS Edge to desktop
  • Some random iOS apps (IMDB, Amazon) to desktop
  • Desktop Firefox to iOS Firefox

What doesn't work:

  • iOS Twitter to desktop
  • iOS Facebook to desktop
  • iOS Reddit to desktop
  • iOS Google Chrome to desktop
  • iOS Yelp to desktop

I'm on Firefox 76.0.1 (Windows 10) and iOS 13.5.

Update: I checked this today (2020/07/06) and the feature seems to be working again. All five items that didn't work in the original report now seem to be working fine.
