FF Sync no longer syncs with new iPadOS

I recently ventured into the Apple world by buying my first iPad, and I had everything working well using Firefox and Firefox Sync. Then I let the iPad update from the latest iOS (13 something I think) to new iPadOS. Now Firefox Sync no longer syncs my bookmarks and passwords. There's just a brief spin of the "sync" icon and nothing updates. Any way to fix this so FF Sync will sync again? Thank you.

Btw, I've found other folks that had this issue dating back to 2019, but haven't found one that had a solution yet.

Try disconnecting the Ipad from sync and reconnecting it

Tried that, Eve. Didn’t help. I think it is a Firefox Sync problem with the latest iPadOS because all was well until I did the OS update.

Btw, is there any way to make FF sync quit asking for my password at every new session? Ever since I stated using sync it asks me for it shortly after a boot to FF. No one besides me uses this PC.
