Hello, I imported my passwords from Chrome to Firefox on Windows, wishing to also use those logins on Android mobile. The sync setting for logins is on.

There's only one way thus far to make them appear in Android thus far, and that's updating them on desktop, one by one. I'm seeking for a solution to make the rest of them appear at once.

Hi

I understand that Firefox Sync did not connect to your mobile device on this occasion, but hopefully I should be able to help you force a Sync event to take place.

Assuming you have connected the same Sync account on both your mobile and desktop copies of Firefox:

In Firefox on your mobile device:

  1. Go into the Settings menu and select Firefox Account.
  2. Tap on Synchronise now.

This will “force” a synchronisation of the data that is on the local device storage.
