Upon installing Firefox on my android tablet, it walks me through the init process. Comes to the sync step and comes back with a "Sign in to Firefox on another device to complete set-up" request. I'm already signed into Firefox from at least one other "device" (this desktop install for example) but apparently the setup process from the tablet lsn't recognizing it.

Yes, we aware that this info can be misleading. This is just a suggestion, not a request. Your sign in process is finished.

yeah, afterwards I could see my links and settings had synched properly. I reinstalled Firefox numerous times thinking this message was an error, so yes, it's confusing.
