Passwords not synchronizing (02/2025)
I'm experiencing an issue with Firefox where my saved passwords from my desktop aren't syncing to my Android phone. Pressing the "Sync Now" button doesn't trigger any action. I've tried several troubleshooting steps, including removing and readding the device, force stopping the app, clearing cache and data, and manually syncing again, but nothing has worked. It seems like a bug. Any suggestions?

When you go here, what do you see? See screenshot I see my passwords on my Sony phone.
I see the same as you, I got all my passwords, but it's many hours old and the manual sync button doesn't do anything. That's the bug. Manually syncing on my desktop machine doesn't sync on my mobile device either.

As a test bookmark something on the desktop, then go sync on the mobile device to see if it shows . Then go to a website you don't have an account with, make an account and make sure it's saved on the desktop and then again on mobile do a sync and see if it gets synced.

Now we're waiting for your proof of the issue.
I forgot my favorite questions... What OS? What version of Firefox?
