Why am I not prompted for my primary password when I view passwords or payment methods in the mobile app?

The question says it all. I have set up a primary password. On my laptop, I am asked to enter it when I look up a password on my password list. When I look up a password on the mobile app, I am not prompted for the primary password. I can reveal or copy any password. It seems like anyone who got access to my phone could get all the passwords.

Hi Betts,

Definitely a valid concern! When I checked on my side, Firefox for iOS actually prompt me to validate FaceID. I can see why you may not noticed that, though.
