If you go to the "List all tabs" button, which is in the far right of the tab bar (it looks like a small downward facing triangle) the "Tabs From Other Computers" is shown in the dropdown menu that comes up when you click it.

Sync provides a list of open tabs on other computers. Go to History > Tabs From Other Computers. App tabs should be listed there.

I do not have a "Tabs From Other Computers" in my history. I have some tabs that were open on another computer, but some that were open on the other computer are not there. None of the app tabs are there. And it's kind of a disorganized mess.

Open a new tab and type about:sync-tabs in the address bar, then press enter. I bookmarked this page.
