I’m running Firefox 131.4 (46621) on my iPhone 12.

I’m setting up a new Mac, and I’m trying to sync the freshly installed Firefox (132.0.1 aarch64) with my other FF instances.

The sync instructions ask if I have FF for mobile, then provide a QR code and give these instructions: 1. Open Firefox on your mobile device. 2. Go to the menu /// on iOS and tap «Sync and save data» 3. Tap «Ready to scan» and hold your phone over this code

There is *no* «Sync and save data» menu item, and I can’t find any other location where I might scan a QR code.


Er, help?

Until the latest Firefox update, I could select the menu options, now in the three dots, and select Share which would give me several sharing options such as text, email, printer, etc. Now there is no option to Share so I have to copy the URL, close my web browser, open another app such as email or text, enter the addressee, paste the URL, send the message, close that app and return to the web browser. 8 steps that used to be completed in 4 steps within the open page in my web browser. Why was Share removed?
