I used this function a lot on Firefox for Android to send tabs from handheld devices to desktop, or from one handheld device to another. Strangely I cannot find the same function in Firefox for Desktop(v50.1.0).

I am aware there are add-ons could do this but I am wondering if this is achievable without an add-on.

Thanks,

Jeremy

Set up Sync in Firefox on your devices and enable Tabs on each device,

Thanks.

Indeed tab-syncing could basically do the same thing and I am actually using it on a daily basis. I am just wondering if this "send tab" feature is available on Desktop version as well.

If not I may simply stick with tab-syncing...
