Tab syncing still not working between desktop/mobile

ajgraves

Steps to reproduce:
After the most recent updates to both desktop and mobile, my desktop Orion does not see the correct list of tabs open on the mobile version. Mobile seems to show the correct open desktop tabs however.

Expected behavior:
I should be able to see an up to date list of the open tabs from other devices

Orion, OS version; hardware type:
Desktop: Version 0.99.115-beta (WebKit 614.1.12) on macOS Monterey version 12.4 (21F79) running on M1 MacBook Pro 14"
Mobile: Version 1.0.3.123 (WebKit 8613.2.7.0.7) on iOS 15.5 (19F77) running on iPhone 13 pro max

Image/Video:
I included screenshots on my previous report, which was resolved after the desktop update that "fixed" sync issues.

ajgraves Thanks.

Can you provide exact steps to reproduce this - what exactly are you doing, what you see and what you expect the result to be. PLease keep screenshots in this thread.

I promise I'm not trying to be sarcastic, but I really don't know what else to say, aside from open a bunch of tabs on mobile, and then use the windows button on the toolbar of your desktop browser, drop down to your mobile device, and see that the tabs that are listed there are not the actual tabs you have open on your phone. Nothing has changed from the screen shots I posted on my previous report, but I can take new screen shots if it'll help. Note that unlike my previous post about this issue, from mobile I can see an accurate list of desktop tabs open. From desktop, I cannot see an accurate list of mobile tabs open.

I have reset the browser data on desktop as directed to previously. I can maybe uninstall/reinstall mobile and see if that helps, that's about the only thing that hasn't been done so far.

ajgraves I could reproduce the problem now, we will have a look.

avetisk Can you check if you have Orion turned on in your iCloud drive options?

I just tried disabling synching and re-enabling it, and it only synched few bookmarks folders and links :/

After 5min, I still have only the same 2 folders and 3 links.

I also tried to enable/disable the iCloud sync on my iPhone combined with enable/disable sync in Orion, but nothing worked.

Adding/removing bookmarks on the iPhone doesn't change anything on the desktop version.

This morning, reading list and bookmarks seem to have synched 🎉

Question: do open tabs and history synch or being accessible from mobile/desktop and vice versa too or is that an upcoming feature?

Vlad

avetisk Open tabs do sync, history does not currently.

Vlad still having issues.

Most open tabs on mobile goes back to start page after some time.

Especially those which are on another “window” (tab group).

It’s really messy :/

After the mobile update, this seems to be working for me again! I'm able to view my mobile tabs on my desktop session. Thanks team!
