Firefox Mobile (Android) does not sync on its own
Hello,
at first I want to thank you to help me and excuse my English because I am not a native.
My problem is that I can press the "sync now" button in Firefox but nothing happens and it should do the sync automatically. Should. Before I started todays sync the last was on the 17th of December. And to start the sync I have to manually close the Firefox via the Android-App-Info, disable my VPN (Blokada) and then maybe it works. But just the first time I use it. Later on, even with no Blokada (disabled), I would have to close FF again to make the sync work.
My Phone is a Xiaomi Mi 10 Lite 5G and I am located in Germany. It is up to date and runs Android 10.
Firefox is the latest out of the Play Store.
Beforehand I used a galaxy S5, and had no such problems, I also had the Account in the settings of the phone. The Xiaomi does not let me add a explicit Firefox-Account, which also could be a problem, but I didn't find a solution yet (google, reddit and so on, this is why I am asking here).
Thank you very much and stay safe & healthy, Philipp

Sync does now work, Phone updated to Android 11 (Xiaomi Mi 10 Lite 5G). That is the only change I am aware of.
