Windows Firefox won't sync with Android and vice versa no matter what
The title pretty much sums it up. I even tried drastic measures such as logging out then completely uninstalling Firefox and removing any leftover data on both platforms. After reinstalling and connecting to the Firefox account they will sync with previous data but any new data I add on Windows won't show up on Android and vice versa. I also obviously tried forcing a sync manually... I really wish I didn't have to switch to another password manager any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

What worked in the end was logging out of both devices, uninstalling and removing all leftover data then reinstalling and syncing Firefox on Android first and Windows second. I don't know why this worked and correlation doesn't always imply causation but now data syncs exactly as before. Thank you for the suggestions!

How long did you let it stay synced? It could take some time for the sync to first sync the data.
I will try modifying a stored login, press sync and wait an hour or two since I didn't try that after I did the fresh installs. It definitely didn't work regardless of time before. I remember changing a password and it didn't sync on Android even after a week.
