Firefox Community Forum

I am not concerned with anyone in my household gaining access to my passwords. If I somehow give a scammer remote access to my computer, does creating a primary password prevent that person from seeing any user names or passwords that I may have accidentally stored on my computer? I am concerned with third party scammers, not anyone physically gaining access to my laptop.

I thought I'd try enabling the Primary Password feature to make my stored passwords more secure, and it works on my desktop, the problem is it doesn't seem to work at all on Firefox for Android and all my stored passwords are still freely available on my phone without entering the Primary Password. That makes it a pretty pointless feature unless you only use Firefox on a desktop. Also my phone is more likely to get stolen and leak all my stored passwords than my desktop.
