Can we have a feature to toggle sync off/on ? Currently it always on and might account for lot of battery usage background. Firefox is almost always running in the background so that's the main issue.

Hi

Firefox Sync happens in the background and is trigger by various events, such as opening Firefox for Android and when you save a new bookmark. it is designed to be something you do not need to think about as it regularly making sure that your data is synced between devices. A manual toggle to turn it on/off is unlikely at this time.
