Hello

Is it possible to enable a password protection when starting the Firefox app on Android ? In special when saved passwords are used they are entered automatically and there is no additional protection of those when going on a website for which the password was saved. E.g. when somebody unlock your device the person is able to start Firefox and going through chronic or pages where you might enabled automatically password fill in. Can this be protected by pin or fingerprint?(like in the Firefox Password manager)

Thank you

Good morning - I wanted to set up two-factor authentication with your browser for security reasons. A code comes up that one uses with one's phone. I connected with it, but I couldn't finish setting up the 2FA. Here's the problem: My Samsung Note 20 Ultra has fingerprint scanning on the screen. Since I bought it, I tried using the fingerprint feature, but it is a beast to get my prints scanned and then it can hardly ever scan my print successfully. So I gave up using fingerprints altogether. So I scan your code, and it wants me to do the whole fingerprinting thing with my phone in order to set it up. It doesn't give me the option to use the security that I did choose to use with my phone. Please advise how I can get 2FA without doing all of this. Thanks. Ritva

I had an Amazon tablet stolen from me a couple weeks ago. A few days after it was stolen, I had Amazon lock the tablet, but I know that they had access at least to my Google and Amazon accounts which were logged in on the device.

It only recently occurred to me that all of my passwords are saved in Firefox. Would they have been able to open Firefox and view all of my passwords? Would they have been able to go to websites and after the password auto filled, click show password?

Are all of my passwords compromised? And do I need to start changing all of my passwords?

As I was changing my password I believe someone else who is already hacked into my device, changed it before I could get it typed in completely. I know what I changed it to or was going to change it to but I received a notification before I completed typing it in. This is the reason I switched to the Firefox browser for the security that it has for it's accounts. Thank you in advance, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Lastest update added the "pull to refresh" gesture but i dont like that. Please add a option to disable it. Also, I close a tab and exit the program, when I reopen firefox, the tab comes back. Finally, it is not good for the Firefox account mail address to appear in the Firefox menu, it would be better to write "Firefox Account" instead of mail. (Sorry for my poor english, I used some translation.)
