I got a new Android device and installed Firefox to Android on it. My desktop bookmarks aren't syncing to Firefox for Android. I have less than 5000 bookmarks.

My tabs are syncing fine.

A few days ago, when I got my new device and installed Firefox, I had just over 5000 bookmarks, but then when I noticed it wasn't syncing the bookmarks, I deleted a few thousand of them on the desktop so as to bring myself below the 5000 bookmark limit. It's been over a day since then.

Last night I tried disconnecting and reconnecting my account on the Android device. As of now, still no synced bookmarks on Android.

Thanks

Problem of syncing more than 5000 bookmarks should be fixed on version 54 of Firefox for Android.

You can try https://addons.mozilla.org/pl/firefox/addon/about-sync/ on desktop and check if your bookmarks was send to sync-server properly.
