Forced to "Use strong password" instead of my saved password

Since the upgrade several days ago, I have not been able to select my saved password on some pages, instead I always see "Use strong password" to create a new one. I have not changed my password or anything, and can still see my account information in the saved passwords setting. How can I recover the way to input my password?

Apparently, if there are input boxes for both a username and a password on the page, my account is automatically set as before. Meanwhile, if there is only a password box, Firefox does not allow me to select my saved password.

Firefox 130.0.1 Build #2016044751 on Android 14

empreinte ou schéma d'authentification de la section "mots de passe" non reconnus

Bonjour, J'avais depuis de nombreuses années installé le navigateur Firefox sur mon smartphone. J'avais, parallèlement, activé la synchronisation sur les divers appareils sur lesquels Firefox était installé. La recherche des mots de passe dans mon smartphone (système d'exploitation Androïd) s'exécutait sans problème, que ce soit en utilisant l'empreinte ou le schéma d'authentification. Depuis 1 mois, sans raisons apparentes, je n'ai plus accès au module de mots de passe. L'authentification ne permet pas l'ouverture de la section pour faire apparaitre la liste des mots de passe, et l'empreinte qui le permettait après de multiples tentatives, pendant une certaine période, est désormais sans effet. Pourriez vous me communiquer quelles pourraient être les causes de ce phénomène et comment réparer ce dysfonctionnement. J'ai déjà essayé de désinstaller et réinstaller l'application Firefox sans résultats. Je vous remercie du concours que vous voudrez bien m'apporter. Cordialement.

Firefox on my Android smartphone is well synchronized with Firefox on the computer. I can see that both contain the same list of logins and passwords. When I must log in other applications, there is a notice that appears saying "unlock faierferox" followed by the sign of fingerprints. But when I try to have my fingerprint recognized, nothing happens.

What should I do?

Thanks for helping.

Security flaw: passwords on Firefox app for Android can be seen without entering phone pin/password.

Firefox for Android app, build 132.0.2.

When opening the password tab, the prompt to enter your devices pin or password appears as it should. However, spamming the "cancel" button on the prompt or the Android's back button (about 4 or 5 times) allows you to go to the password manager and view all usernames and passwords without reentering the device's pin/password.

To recreate: open the password tab, enter pin prompt opens, pressing cancel reopens the pin prompt, pressing cancel 4 or 5 times opens the password manager without verification.

There seems to be no way to delete more than one saved password. In the Android most recent version of Firefox, and also in the Firefox Beta for Android period I've tried to sign on to my Firefox account my mozilla account and there's no way to delete the passwords there either period I would like to delete all passwords, and I have thousands that I've saved Uber the past few years, so I have to have an easier way to delete all of these other than sitting here for hours, clicking delete 3 times To remove the passwords from the browser things I have done, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the application, I have deleted the app data and cash and then reinstall the application on all of my other devices, I have also turned off the saving of passwords and yet these passwords remain could you please? Give me. A good response so that I can get my personal passwords off of my phone period that's what I would really like! Thank you, Jacob.

Bear with me please.

So, just using "default" profile and no associated email, i accidentally pressed the passwords menu. This opens an unlock screen that, i think is supposed to look exactly like the stock Android one but it is different. It prompts for a pin, which i didnt want to provide, but wouldnt allow me to back a page using 3 button back arrow (havent tested with gestures though) . SO i input enough incorrect pin codes. It rate limits you after about 5 failed attempts. Except i found if i repeatedly tap the back button quickly, the rate limit is instantly bypassed again immediately and i can continue indefinately until i guess the pin...

Doesnt inspire much confidence yet.. but it's getting there!
