Step to reproduce

1. Open a tab in a container, such as Personal.
2. Right click on the page or on the tab bar
3. Select Send tab to device
4. Select my phone (it's an iOS device)
5. Firefox says "Sent"
6. Phone doesn't receive
7. Open tab in non-container, with the same page
8. Send to the same device
9. Tab is received

Actual behavior

Tabs that are in a container are not sent to the mobile device.

Expected behavior

Any tab should be sent to the device, regardless if it is in a container or not.

There is probably a discussion to be had if the mobile device has Multi-Account-Container extension or not, and if it's configured the same.

Additional informations

This seems to be a regression, as I have used this feature multiple times before, with tabs from containers.

[dromeo79]

I am seeing similar behavior. After adding the latest version of Multi-Account Container extension to latest Firefox on Windows 10, I am not able to send tabs to Firefox on iOS. Doesn't matter if the tab is in a container or not.

Attempted send of tabs from two different Windows 10 machines, both with Container extension. Windows devices can sync tabs correctly to each other. Two different iOS devices can send tabs to Windows devices and each other. Cannot receive tabs on either iOS device from Windows devices with Container extension.

[dromeo79]

This is now working for me. I can send tabs to my mobile devices once again. No changes other than updates to latest releases for Win10 and iOS.

[cipri-tom]

It's also working for me ! Thanks for the heads up, Dominic !
