I see that the sync feature has caused my device to save 37,841 web pages from across all my synced devices, taking up 1.38 GB of precious memory. I have unchecked the sync browsing history checkbox in settings. I have gone to accounts and sync on my device settings, and all I see is other accounts, with no option to see or add Firefox, so that I can use the switching feature in my device settings to unsync Firefox from this device. What I want to know is, if I clear browsing data on this device, will it clear the browsing data from all my logged in devices? Or will I be okay, since I unchecked the browsing history checkbox in the Firefox settings for sync?

Can I fine-tune sync the way I want?

I would love to be able to sync bookmarks and passwords between two desktops yet sync just the bookmarks to a third device: an Android phone. Why? Because while I want my bookmarks available everywhere, I don't want sensitive passwords on a device that leaves home.

But I don't see a way to do that. I've tried, and I find the passwords and up being synced no matter how I configure the settings.

Nor, apparently, can I export the bookmarks and passwords to a file, strip out the passwords, and import the bookmarks alone to the phone--what I was hoping could be a workaround. I gather one can't import to mobile Firefox. Have to sync.

So I'm back where I started: unable to do what I want to do.

And I missing something?

Firefox account keeps search history even though only bookmark sync is turned on. I logged out from firefox mobile, deleted firefox mobile, reinstalled firefox mobile, relogged in to firefox mobile and I see again the search history. How can I remove permanently the search history and how can I disable permanently search history saving even though only bookmark sync is turned on?
