Firefox vir iOS Community Forum

firefox is my default browser - i'm on a mac - yesterday it just deleted for no reason - when i searched for it it was gone from my applications

i reinstalled it but now i don't have any of my previous information (bookmarks and stored passwords)

can i recover this?

I type in my username and my password but you have installed a block that DEMANDS I sign up for 2-party verification or whatever its called and I cannot sign up for your 2-party verification because 5 years ago I had a different phone number and your 2-party verification is sending a code to my old number. I have been asking for 5 years how I change my phone number so I can get the code and 5 years ago some man suggested I be a 'bit more patient' so how many more years do you expect me to wait for a reply?

HOw do I stay signed in to Firefox so I do not have to sign in everytime I open it? Also, I created a new password which is being rejected. Since I can see the password, I know its the right one.

I was orrdering services from GROOME TRANSPORTATION online a few minutes ago, and got a message to SAVE my bank debit card info to FIREFOX which I thought was part of the booking process of this vendor. It was not. I want to remove any and all of my debit card information from Firefox immediately! Please respond ASAP.

I have quite a lot of passwords stored in my iPhone. I would like to sync (or, if not possible, export) these passwords to my Firefox browser on the same iPhone.

Many thanks!

For some reason accounts/passwords are not syncing on Firefox across my iPhone and MacBook. I have both signed into the account and have set up sync but it is not sharing across the devices.

I'm using Firefox on iOS along with the Bitwarden app for password management. I've noticed that Chrome and Safari display Bitwarden suggestions for password autofill directly in the toolbar, but Firefox does not. Is this due to my settings, or could it be an unfixed bug with Firefox on iOS? Has anyone else encountered this issue or knows if it's being addressed?

When I try to sign into Firefox I don’t have the password. To get a new one, Mozilla wants to reset Firefox and trash my data. Is there a way to sign in without a reset?

Thanks.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1395581 <------------- Perfect example. Only responder is completely useless, asking pointless, obvious things, not understanding clear explanations, and not a single other person even attempting to help.

Your password system for iOS is completely screwed up. As others have noted, it never asks to save a password. Yes, the option is turned on. No, we aren't all in private mode. These questions are silly.

When I went to log in today - because I have to log in, and then verify it's me, every single time I open the browser, because ?????? - I also verified it ALWAYS says the first entry of your PW is wrong. I marked "view password" to ensure I entered it the right way. Entered it exactly the same way the second time. Worked the second time. This is how it goes literally every single time I log in. First time it says the PW is wrong, enter the exact same one a second time, works perfectly, and doesn't bother to ask me to save it, so I have to go through the entire obnoxious process every single solitary time I want to log into absolutely anything.

Then people ask about it, and are either told "-shrug- works fine for me lol," given meaningless responses with requests to log into people's personal websites, or they're completely ignored. The last person asking this question said they were going to just get another browser, and that's about where I'm at. This isn't an isolated incident, either. The number of questions on here that end with the user giving up and the question being archived without answer - sometimes without a single answer even *attempted* - is laughable. Firefox is more trouble than it's worth, and even getting a simple answer about passwords takes months of research and ultimately leads nowhere and nobody has any idea how to resolve the problem.

Oh my god. I wanted to export my bookmarks in preparation for going to another browser, since you clearly don't support this one, and come to find - YOU DON'T HAVE AN OPTION TO EXPORT BOOKMARKS FROM iOS FIREFOX. You may be the hands down worst browser I've ever seen in my entire life. Every single thing is a huge ordeal, usually takes months of research that ends in me giving up, and basic functions like exporting bookmarks you just deliberately don't offer?

Holy crap. I'm not only uninstalling this from my tablet but I'm getting rid of you on my desktops too. Your company is far too incompetent and careless to risk having on any of my devices.

Firefox password manager will not offer to generate a password if i am creating a new account on my iphone. It works fine for autofilling existing passwords. I can only do that on my Windows PC. Can the iOS version generate secure paswords? I couldn't find anything to help in an internet search.

hi team

I am a multi decade, firefox in Mozilla supporter

About five years ago, had to transition to iPhone

The best solution was Lockwise for managing passwords, retaining cross platform support using firefox sync

In the last week or so Lockwise started automatically logging me out at least every day. This is extremely annoying and frustrating.

I would ditch lockwise, however it is the only solution to get Firefox sync passwords on iOS

Please advise - that seems like a bug in Lockwise that was recently introduced as a regression

It seems like Firefox password is not supported as a source in Firefox yet either on iPhone otherwise I would switch to that

I was going to switch from Chrome to Firefox on my iphone, but FF is telling me I need to set up Touch ID/passcode to use the saved passwords feature. I don't want to do this and don't see a way around it. Is there any option to decline this? If not, I guess I'll be stuck with Chrome for now! Couldn't find an answer to this anywhere. Would love some help.

Hi, there is no import data button on general settings on ipad pro menu. How can i import passwords, bookmarks and history from brave/opera/duckduckgo/chrome/edge on ipad pro to firefox? How can i download history, passwords and bookmarks files for backing up firefox on ipad pro Thanks a lot

Hi My firefox on 2 macbooks, Ipad and Iphone are all signed in and sync is on but the passwords etc don't sync. In fact, if I make any new account on one device, despite repeated syncing attempts, the passwords NEVER sync.

All my passwords are gone. When I tried to log into a site, I get a Firefox message, saying to save and auto fill passwords, you must have a device pass code. I am not redirected anywhere, and have no idea where to find a device pass code. I’m devastated as all my passwords were saved here. How can I get them back?

When I try to login and it can detect my email so I don’t need to key in my email I just key in my password. after keying in my password it say missing parameter:client is but if I log out and re login again by re keying in my email information and password there won’t be this error message.Even with this error message I will still be logged in as I will receive a email to say I am sign in and when I go back to the home page and go back to the account page again I will be already logged in.I will still be logged in afterwards when I re enter the account page but this message will pop up if I just key in the password without my email as it can detect my account but if I just re enter my email and password I don’t face this message.This is not the first time I faced this
