Since an update I get "unlock firefox" when logging in to apps. It used to offer suggestions. I have to load firefox then settings passwords and search for the user/password name and copy! Why ?

Firefox for years has allowed me to autofill user/password in apps. Now it says "unlock firefox" and I have to open firefox, settings, saved passwords and search! What a pain in the A__ ! Why are you (MOZILLA) acting like all the other monsters taking control of the people ! Give me control over my device ! OPTIONS ?

Bei einigen Web-Seiten oder Apps (ich kann es leider nicht näher spezifizieren) werde ich von dem Anbieter obligatorisch nach Benutzername und Kennwort gefragt, die Firefox kennen und vorblenden sollte. Aber dann erscheint über dem Tastatur-Feld meines Android-Smartphones ein Symbol mit einem Fingerabdruck und dem Label "Firefox entsperren". Wenn ich da draufdrücke, geschieht nichts. Was muss ich tun?

Herzlichen Dank!

I just changed phones and providers. The provider transferred all data to the new phone, but Firefox and Firefox Focus did not transfer, and had to be reinstalled. I stored my passwords on Firefox and can't access them on my new phone. It keeps telling me to log in on my computer, but the only computer that was synced was lost or stlen a year ago while I was hospitalised for major surgery. I reported this to Mozilla at that time. I just need to access my passwords on my new phone. HELP!

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.

I've been trying to view my saved passwords on mobile but every time I either enter my pin or use my thumbprint to log in, the action doesn't complete. It just goes back to the enter pin screen again and again.

This is the first time I'm encountering this problem and I'm a bit stumped.

Thats all Im getting out if firefox now. I want to sign in to get help but like ending up here its knly after stumbling around sugnjng in, filling out request for help that dusappears and i have to start over. Ive been usinf firefox for years but i guess im just going yo be stuck typing in email addresses and passwords and writing them down which we are advised not to do but ive been online for half an hour getting nowhere.

Hi. when i go into passwords, I am asked to unlock to view passwords, it says enter your device pin, I do this and it comes up again "unlock to view passwords" behind this message will be the first page of the password list, if you type in password again as requested it just locks up and you cant get off the page. I am using correct password it unlocks everything else. Please help all my passwords are unaccesable on the mobile, still ok on laptop, I have tried uninstalling firefox and re installing and rebooting mobile, no change. Thanks

Hi,

Firefox android provides no master password/primary password protection so passwords in the Firefox password manager are protected only by your lockscreen swipe(yeah, I thought the same thing you just thought).

I need full protection like on Desktop or I can't sync my passwords to Firefox. However, when temporarily enabling password sync on desktop, for example between two desktop devices it also temporarily enables it on android Firefox that you might have synced as well. The upshot of this for me is that I now have all my passwords on android without wanting them there for the above reasons.

So, how do I remove all passwords on my firefox android, without having to reinstall Firefox on the phone?

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?
