Hello - Can someone provide me a simple explanation of what Firefox considers "Connected Services"? The Connected Services screen says "Everything you are using and signed into" - which I can sort of understand - BUT, what is Firefox DOING with its access to my PC, for one thing? At the Connected Services screen there is no link or button which provides an explanation - as to what Firefox DOES with the Connected Services. Any positive, constructive information will be appreciated. JFC

Hello, if you need help with the devices or services in your Firefox account, you can get more information by entering the following link Manage the devices linked to your Mozilla account

To jeyson1099 - The information at that link does not answer my question. It's one thing to use Firefox or Chrome or Opera as a web browser/portal to the Internet. It's another thing for a web browser to say that its use constitutes "Connected Services". I'll rephrase my initial question - into two related questions. Question 1: What "Services" are being performed in Firefox's Connected Services? At the Firefox Connected Services page, it shows my PC as a connected device. Question 2: Beyond functioning as a portal to the Internet, what else is Firefox doing while it is connected to my PC? Again, any constructive information will be appreciated. JFC

Hi

Connected Services lists other Mozilla products or services that you have signed into with your Firefox Account such as Firefox for Android, Firefox Monitor, Firefox Relay or Pocket.

It allows you to see what is currently connected to your account and remove from your account devices or services that you no longer require to be connected to your Firefox Account.
