So I recently switched my mobile browser to firefox, but I can't get the passwords to synch completely.

Settings on desktop and mobile firefox both have password synch enbled. But the saved passwords I can access on mobile is significantly lower than the passwords I have on desktop.

I'm not too sure if this is related but more than half or majority of my desktop firefox passwords were imported from chrome. I'm not too sure if the passwords that are not synching to mobile, if they were the ones imported from chrome. I switched from firefox to chrome to firefox again so it's hard to tell.

Edit: It's not just the chrome imported passwords. Even the more recent passwords that were created on firefox were not synched on mobile. But strangely, 2 of the recent passwords created on firefox were synched to mobile but the rest were not. I don't know what's going on.

I found a very tedious workabout - if I edit/update the password in desktop firefox settings, that specific login details will get synched to mobile. But I'll still have to manually do it one by one, which is not ideal.
