I can no longer use geolocation on any website.

Geo.enabled is set to true on both synced devices.

If I un-install & then re-install Firefox I get the usual allow / deny geolocation prompt. If I allow it, geolocation works fine, so it's not the device, location is enabled in app permissions. As soon as I sync I get the denied geolocation prompt message.

There doesn't seem to be any way to re-enable geolocation. Devices are Nexus 6 & Nexus 9, both running Android 7.1.1 and the latest Firefox.

Any ideas?

thanks, Edward.

Thanks, but there is no site settings option, just "Insecure connection", which is irrelevant as there is no need to login.
