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.

My phone was hacked and because I was signed into Firefox, I believe my saved passwords were accessed. I had opened a political text in messenger, nothing to click on, nor would I, closed the app and put down my phone. When I picked up my phone, messenger was opened with a text about to send with a password I've used, but no app name or website. I located which app it belonged to. I ran my virus protection, but phone was fine.

If there was a way to answer security questions, or send me an email or text to verify who I was before I could access saved passwords, that would be great. Could this be added to the web browser?

I've just happened to learn that Firefox on Android no longer uses a master password to protect passwords. That was a feature that has kept me on Firefox forever.

It is insufficient, dangerous, and insecure to rely on my device PIN. PINs are not long, can be brute forced, and law enforcement can compel discloser.

I am baffled by this choice. If it is how its going to be I have no particular reason to use Firefox and I certainly can't financially support it.
