Firefox for Android Support Forum

When trying to autofill password in other app, a fingerprint icon alongside "Unlock Firefox" is being displayed. Tapping on said icon doesn't do anything. And I can't simply unlock via fingerprint, since my device is using an in-display fingerprint reader which triggers the keyboard stroke instead of reading the fingerprint to unlock the passwords.

Device: Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Android: 11 MIUI: 12.5.2 Keyboard: GBoard & Swiftkey (both show same issue)

I am using Firefox browser on my Samsung Android phone. I set it up to use Firefox password autofill as the default. When entering an ID and password , I am offered a list of IDs and starred passwords, and I cant tell which is the right one, as most IDs are my email. It does not suggest one or two passwords for that particular web address, as does my PC laptop.

Can you please tell me how to change my password, I've got some warning that someone in Russia is trying to access this account, I wish to create a much stronger password, just don't know how. Thanks for your help with this matter.

- there is a confusion when defining the fiirst and second Login-address. First the 2nd address was rejected as already existing. Then I had trouble removing the first email-address. When I finally succeeded, the new 1st address was correctly displayed on termination. With the following registration however, again the former email-address is indicated as 1st address and the 2nd, (which should have been the first now), was rejected again Because of this state I also cannot synchronize and create a recovery code,

Hi, Whenever I'm trying to open Google adwords from firefox it's showing my location as Netherlands, although I'm in India...tried changing it many time but everytime it still opens up page as Netherlands.

Is there a way to change it to India. Thanks in advance

Hi,Firefox System

Your service is currently very qualitative, other web browsers have relatively high performance Provide an option to change IP address from time to time like Vpn to improve the tracking protection of Usar privacy...

Ive come back to firefox for android after a year of using other browser,bbut there is no setting i can find.

1, i visit a login page The page has the username but the password field is blank.

2, i select the link at bottom tbat says passwords.

3, a list pops up, and one of the listed items is to pick a saved password.

4, i pick the saved password, then all the urls are in the background while a thumprint security check is showing.

5, i put my thumb on the screen and now it lets me see all the saved passwords.

6, i select the correct url whos password is the right one.

7, it returns back to the original login page BLANK

It seams to me auto fill is switched on, but its not working, or the thumbnail security is blacking the transfer.

So ive deleted the url and password saved, there was only one, then ive gone to the login page and typed in the username and password, enter. Firefox asks if i wish to save the logon details, i do

But each time i go to the login page the password is blank?

I should add the url is a link to my network drives, so its an ip address like 192.168.x.xx

So ehy is android firefox no longer inserting the details, its the latest version, ive also cleared cache both, and it losds firefox as if its the first time i ran it. I set everything up to what i want, auto login is on.

I sign in with my account and sync brings back my desktop bookmarks saved logins etc.

Still there is only one url saved, ive seen this happen sometimes when thete is 2 saved logins for same url, but right now there is only one saved bookmark, and only one saved user name and password.

Anything i can do, or back to the browser i was using. Ive used the new android fitefox ever since it updated to the new one, most of the time it sat ln my phone unused, so i made sure jt had no update.

Sorry this is long, but ill be told to make sure the suto fill or auto login is on. Ive been through sll its settings.

Thanks

I was changing my passcode to make it stronger and accidentally hit the button before I was through. I knowthe code had the #'s 6869 in it,but I've tried every combination I can think it might have been, but no luck. Can you please help me. Thanks, Bill Morgan

Hi everyone,

I set up my Firefox for Android to delete cookies and cache when I click on "Close".

I was happy with it but I realized several months ago than websites as leboncoin.fr, amazon.fr, decathlon.fr (yes i'm french), didn't keep me loged in but remember what I had looked for and where I was. This problem is permanent.

I don't have this problem with Firefox for Windows.

So it seems something is nor cleared from the app when I close it.

Thank you very much for your help !

I dont know how to get back to my original question. There was information i missed.

I said firfox would not auto login, but although i used ip addresses i didnt say that the auto login works on normal internet sites.

So to clarify, the problem started a while ago now, but badically i have 4 network drives, the username and password is saved for the login to those 4 drives.

Normally i eould click a link 192.168.X.X and the admin login page loads

On the android phone it shows nothing, both boxes are blank, but on the desktop the user name is filled in, and a drop down list shows just one password, i select it and login.

So the auto login is only failing on the local network login page, i cant see anything on the android phone except the password link button that takes me to the whole list of passwords, but like i said if i use my thumb to unlock and select the correct password it returns back to login page blank.

Ive just loaded desktop firefox and there is a warning that "connection not secure"

I dont see that warning on my android, so im guessing that the full web address to my network drive is https://192.168.x.x

So im guessing passwords are not available for secured sites?

It might be the WD NAS that has changed something, because i never had this problem on the phone or disktop, it was the phone im using mostly, in fact i can no longer use the phone this way, i gave up typing in usernames and passwords a long time ago.

So right now its quicker to turn on the laptop and access the 4 network drives.

So sorry if my information made you suspect something else. I know nothing about the change WD has done, i do know it use to put up a long code for the address, but thats gone now and in both desktop and android, it hides tge http or https so im never going to know whats going on.

So i was using android, i would select a bookmark to WD network drive and it use to put in all the information, all i did was click the login button .

So that stopped working, if i visit say ebay.co.uk i get automatically logged in, or if im asked then the correct details is already put in the boxes and i just clickogin.

So only my local network drives, and i do remember them updating the firmwear several times, during that time many strange things happend, for example the ip address was changed to a long length mix of numbers and letters, but they fixed that now.

Shame i cant upload a photo, i could link to one on the net?

Can you put this on the end of my last post as a reply? I coukd not find a way of updating

Thanks

John
