Hi,
Unlike on desktop, Firefox on mobile does not provide users the option of protecting access to their passwords in the passwords manager with a master password (go figure). This is a major security problem for persons such as myself, who have the typically shorter pin for their mobile unlock screen than that which they use to protect their password manager (it would make it almost unusable if I set the mobile unlock pin the master password every time I went to use the mobile!).
So unfortunately, if I am to use Firefox on mobile I have no choice but to disable the password manager currently.
I am signed into a synced Firefox account on my mobile device, which syncs with my desktop Firefox. If I disable the password manager in the mobile device, does that disable the password manager on all devices which are synced with the same account, such as my desktop, or just disable the password manager on the mobile device?
