I'm not even sure if this is possible.

I've recently updated my phone, the old phone had Android 8.1, the new one has Android 12.

Is it possible to sync between the two phones?

I've signed in to Firefox on both phones but open tabs are not synced.

I have Firefox on my Windows laptop but I don't want to sync those tabs, I only want to sync the tabs that are open on my old mobile, which are different to what are open on my Windows laptop.

Hi

If you are signed into the same Firefox Account on both devices, you should be able to send tabs from one to the other.

Under the Notifications option in the Firefox for Android menu, has permission been granted for received tabs?

It seems to be working now. I singed out and back in on my new mobile and suddenly I could see all tabs from my old phone. Happy days :)
