Syncserver sync well with desktop Firefox but not with Android Firefox

What app is this about, and its version: Firefox SyncStorage syncserver-rs, 0.21.1.1~ynh1
What YunoHost version are you running: 12.1.25
What type of hardware are you using: Old laptop or computer

Describe your issue

Hello to all,
I’m using syncserver to sync all my Firefox profiles between several computer and phone. It works like a charm on desktop Firefox (Linux & Windows) but not well on Android.
Indeed, I just tried to synchronize a fresh Firefox 146.0.1 on Android 15 install, but it works not well: it synchronizes all bookmarks once but they aren’t in their respective folder like on desktop Firefox. However, history isn’t synchronized. Later, if I try to add one bookmark either on desktop or mobile it seems to not synchronize anymore.
Have you an idea of what happened ?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Pascal

Hello,

So I followed theses instructions:

github.com/YunoHost-Apps/syncserver-rs_ynh

doc/config/CONFIGURATION.md

master

# Configuring Firefox

[Check the TROUBLESHOOTING guide](TROUBLESHOOTING.md) for common pitfalls if the steps below don't work for you.

Please follow these steps to configure your browsers on desktop and Android.

## Check your custom syncserver-rs instance

Once you install syncserver-rs on your Yunohost box, visit the heartbeat URL to
check if everything is OK:

`https://<YOUR_SYNCSERVER_URL>/__heartbeat__`

You should see something along the lines of the following:

```JSON
{
  "database": "Ok",
  "quota": {
    "enabled": false,

And then it (seems to…) works !

Before reading that, I followed the “older SyncStorage implementation”, especially pairing mobile application that was quite different. Now you have to pair it with a QR-Code.

Sorry for the inconvenience, I close the subject.
