Firefox for Android Community Forum

Decided to check my passwords for something because I forgot it. List was completely empty.. Search bar not working (tried just in case), When using saved passwords autofill out of Firefox app it said 'you have no saved passwords with firefox' or something similar I'm on an android phone right now. Can't currently check if they are also gone on laptop.

Don't know what to do. Other posts were not helpful

I like using fingerprint to unlock my mobile and I can manage the risks linked to the weaknesses of the method.

BUT I find very dangerous to be able to access all my passwords using my finger. My finger could be used when I am asleep for example and the person would be able to see and copy all the passwords he wants while I am sleeping. I would even not notice he copied anything when I wake up.

When I want to see a password I am proposed to use PIN AND fingerprint. So unless there is a way to disable unlocking the passwords with the fingerprint, I am forced to disable fingerprint to unlock my mobile which is annoying.

My question is -- How do I disable fingerprint for accessing my passwords without removing fingerprint globally ?

My google account has informed me that some of my information has been found in data breaches on the dark web. This included a list of information found. Where a password has been compromised, the list gives the 1st 3 characters of the password followed by ******. No website information is given. My query ..... Is there a way of searching my passwords held in Firefox to find this password so that I can change it? Firefox stores my passwords, how do I find a particular password without knowing the website it is associated with?

For about 1 week now, Android Firefox nightly does not input my saved passwords into the password fields. Thankfully the regular Firefox app has no issues with inputting the passwords that are saved. Is this a bug with Firefox nightly Android?

Nightly version is 111.0a1

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.

Whenever ZmI go 2 lookup a saved login or to enter my Android pass code 2 do the same, the keyboard to enter it refuses to show so that I can. At 1st I was using an add on keyboard called Black Red Tech from Play Store. I took that out, restarted & tried with GBoard. No change. I have restarted phone several times. Next step is uninstalling FF but I'm reluctant 2 do that. Any other ideas?? This is what the screen displays in both cases, and there is no way that talking, holding buttons or restarting seems to pop the keyboard up. This is what keyboard looks like. Screenshot of saved logins screen just is blank black.

The bitwarden captcha doesn't appear on login, I've disabled the ublock origin extension. Browser protection level is at standard level. Can anyone help? Device : Redmi 9C Android 10 MIUI 12.0.14

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!

Since thete is no primary password on FF mobile Android. Other then using a global type lock on my phone, what are ways to keep my saved FF logins safe? I heard of something called lockbox or lockwise but don't see that option anywhere. Are the apps that can seamlessly work with FF?

Also is there someway to see a forum vs. being abstracted awaywith this gui? Or is there no forum access?

Thanks.

I changed my the password to my Firefox account, let's call the old one "OldPassword" and the current one "NewPassword". When I sign into accounts.firefox.com, I enter "NewPassword", and it works as expected. HOWEVER, occasionally when I try to sign into my Firefox account, it tells me that password is INCORRECT.

The most reproducible situation is when I have some sync issue and I need to sign back into my Firefox Account on mobile in order to reestablish a Sync connection between FF Mobile and FF Desktop. In this situation, entering "NewPassword" fails, but "OldPassword" works!

If I go to accounts.firefox.com/settings/change_password, and enter "OldPassword" in the Current Password field and "NewPassword" in the New Password fields, it will say that I've entered an incorrect current password. When I put "NewPassword" in the Current PW field, it accepts that as correct, but then says, "New password cannot be the same as current password."

My current theory is that Firefox Sync used to be a separate service from the Firefox Account, and users could create a password for each that didn't necessarily have to be the same (That's how it used to work, right? Am I remembering that correctly?) A few years back, Sync got integrated into Account so it all uses one password. At some point, I updated my account password to "NewPassword", but for some reason the Sync part of the system didn't get its credential updated in the same way.

Can anyone provide insight into this situation, or how to fix it? I'd really like to not have to remember two separate FF passwords and guess which one to use each time I need to sign in.

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.
