+## Tips & Tricks
+
+#### Change in Firefox desktop
+in `about:config`, change: `identity.sync.tokenserver.uri` to `https://firefox.example.com/token/1.0/sync/1.5`<br>
+
+(default is `https://token.services.mozilla.com/1.0/sync/1.5`)
+
+#### Change on iOS
+1. In `Settings` - tap 5 times on the version number to get into **Debug Mode**
+2. Go to `Advanced Sync Settings` and enter your sync URL: `https://firefox.example.com/token/1.0/sync/1.5`
+
+#### Generate secret
+```sh
+head -c 20 /dev/urandom | sha1sum
+```
+
+#### Test
+`/usr/local/bin/python -m syncstorage.tests.functional.test_storage --use-token-server http://localhost:5000/token/1.0/sync/1.5`
+
+#### Remove mozilla hosted data
+```sh
+pip install PyFxA
+python ./bin/delete_user_data.py user@example.com
+```
