I use Firefox on two different Windows machines, my Android phone, and my Android tablet. I am signed in to the same sync account on all of them. I would like to be able to see the history from other devices, or preferably, a chronological list of sites that I have visited in a single list.

I'm currently using Firefox on my home PC and when I click on the "Firefox Account" button, I can see a list of tabs that are open on the various devices. But when I go into History/ManageHistory, I mostly see the history of just this PC. I see some items from other devices, but a very small percentage.

There are a lot of constraints for syncing history. Synced history expires in 60 days. New history is uploaded for the last 30 days. MAX_HISTORY_UPLOAD = 5000 MAX_HISTORY_DOWNLOAD = 5000

I don't see anything in the history from other devices for recent activity, such as the last 7 days. I don't think the 60 day or 30 day time limits are affecting anything.

Was I suppose to modify something in that link? I see these items in there:


import {

 MAX_HISTORY_DOWNLOAD,
 MAX_HISTORY_UPLOAD,
 SCORE_INCREMENT_SMALL,
 SCORE_INCREMENT_XLARGE,

} from "resource://services-sync/constants.sys.mjs";
