This happens when I'm on Firefox on Windows and send a tab to my Android device.

Sent tab does not come through as a notification until I manually refresh (from history/synced devices and pull down to refresh) in the Android app.

Is there anything I can do to have the sent tab to come through without refreshing the sync?

Love this feature. Thank you.

Hi Chris

I am glad to hear that you like what we are doing with Firefox.

Have you tried this issue in the new Firefox Preview browser, available from the Google Play store?

Thanks,

Over the last 2 days I have been trying it here and there. it seems to work almost all the time on Firefox Preview. I believe there was a hick up when the app wasn't open in the background and the link did not open until I went into Firefox Preview, but it works much better than the standard Firefox app.
