What happened to "Send Tab"?

On the iOS version, it used to be possible to Send Tab to another device on which you were logged in to Firefox. I found this to be a really useful feature but it seems to have disappeared in the latest update (first on my iPad but now on my iPhone too).

This was a really useful feature! Typically you would come across a website whilst browsing Facebook or something similar but it would be more appropriate to view it from your main device - laptop and/or desktop PC. With Send Tab, you could just do so and the tab would be there waiting for you as a reminder as soon as you opened up Firefox on the other device.

Please, please can we have it back?

100% - not having this “Send to Device” option completely disrupts my workflow.

^^^ Found it! The “send” symbol now sits upper left - in the URL box. This is a handy place for it but def “hiding in plain sight”.

Please bring back the Send to Device functionality.

While you’re at it improve how quickly synced and sent tabs are picked up on the target device? Maybe use a WebSocket connection to the Sync server?
