I WANT TO SYNC MY FIREFOX TO MY NIGHTLY. Android 10 SAME device. WHY DOES THIS NOT WORK? I have spent ALL NIGHT screwing around with something that SHOULD work. ALL I WANT IS THE BOOKMARKS to add to nightly. I have USED FIREFOX FROM THE BEGINNING of Firefox. This is OUTRAGEOUS. No the "customer help" does NOT have the ANSWER. Either you give me a solution, or I am unbelievably changing all my browsers, all my password saving from your locker application. HELP ME sync my BOOKMARKS from Firefox to NIGHTLY! SAME DEVICE. OTHERWISE make it so you can WRITE the damned FILE. WHY did you TAKE THAT AWAY?

Hi

What happens when you sign into your Firefox Account on a second copy of Firefox for Android in the same device?

Once you are signed in, and the first copy has synced, your bookmarks and other data should appear on the second copy.

Key word is "should" I am in Firefox, Nightly,Lockwise. All on same. Don't think Lockwise syncs either.

Okay. Assuming that you are logged into the same account in both Nightly and Firefox for Android, manually triuger a Sync in the Settings in the version where you bookmarks and other data currently is.
