Passwords for subdomains

Hi,

the password manager in Firefox on iOS has become practically useless (for me) with somewhat recent releases. Privately and for work I have different passwords on different sites within the same domain (site1.example.com, site2.example.com, etc.). While Firefox saves passwords for these correctly, and is able to recall them correctly in the desktop version, the iOS version simply presents *all* stored credentials for 'example.com' with no way to tell them apart.

Please restore the earlier behaviour here. If there are passwords for the subdomain/hostname I'm trying to access, then only present those. Fall back to the second-level domain only if no passwords are stored for the current hostname.

Thank you! Wbr, very very long time Mosaic/Netscape/Mozilla/Firefox user

Hi Wbr,

Would you be comfortable in filing a bug report on Firefox for iOS GitHub repository so the team can verify this issue?
