Details

The "Send Tab" feature is not working in Firefox for iOS beta (Version 16.0 build 14148, but I also had the same problem in previous builds).

Steps to reproduce:

  1. "Send Tab to Device" on Desktop
  2. Select "Firefox Beta on $mymobiledevice"
  3. Wait

What I expect:
Tab gets sent to my device, a notification should appear and the tab should be opened in Firefox Beta

What happens:
Nothing. Desktop reports "Sent", but no notification or new tab on my iPhone.

This problem does not happen for Firefox stable. When sending from Desktop to Firefox for iOS stable, the notification arrives nearly instantaneous.

Jan, can you please try uninstalling and re-installing the beta? It sounds like you may have declined the push notification permission at some point which is why this feature isn't working for you in the beta channel.

Hm, I double-checked notification permissions and they were all allowed.
I then reinstalled and resynced as you said (and disconnected the old device).
Seems to be working for now.

Ok, thanks for checking. This may also have been caused by Bug 1515655 which is now fixed as well (on master).
