Upgrade from Preview to Nightly
Hello. My tabs, history and other data did not migrate upon upgrade from Firefox Preview for Android to Firefox Nightly. I have and Android phone with software version 6.0. I do not typically log in to my account. Both Firefox versions are loaded on my phone so data has not been lost. I am unsure if this relates but I am close to memory capacity on my LG Fortune (first version). Thanks for your assistance and volunteer work.

The data is not shared between apps. You would need to use Firefox Sync to move the data over.
This does not answer my question. To clarify: how does one sync between Firefox Preview and Firefox Nightly? My attempts to follow. online directions have failed.
I did create and login to a Firefox Sync account. Both Firefox apps had been downloaded onto my phone. Please note that my only device is my LG Fortune first generation phone with Android version 6.0. I am not "sync'ing" to any other device.
Please clarify what steps I must follow to migrate my data to Firefox Nightly from Firefox Preview.
Thank you.
Hi
Have you signed into both apps with the same Firefox Account?
Yes, I am logged into both apps via the same email account.
The problem is not solved.
I provided information and have not recieved any instructions. Please reply.
I have logged out and logged back in to both Preview and Nigjtly. While I noticed that tabs have migrated over, my browser history has not. Should I expect the migration of such data or not?
In your Firefox Sync settings, is history set as an item that should be included?
