Hello, i've recently installed Firefox for Android and apparently (no idea why) has a full old list of password in "Saved passwords". On my desktop the saved password list is empty (deleted some time ago) and it's synced with my Firefox account (between desktop and laptop), however the Firefox android app constantly has a full list of saved passwords. Clearing cache and clearing data doesn't do nothing, if i sync with my account i get the list back. How is that possible?

Plus i can't bulk delete that list, i must click the 3 dots and manually delete one by one and that's atrocious.

SOLVED: the problem was with my old laptop with Firefox, even if the session was disconnected it was keeping its password list synced (strangely... maybe a bug?) so i just deleted it and resync again. Now Firefox on Android has the empty list synced correctly.

On the newest version of Firefox after a full uninstall/reinstall - problem started last night. New install of Firefox didn't sync with my email, but after linking it on desktop via QR code, old passwords were reinstated. opened password manager again, and the problem where my phone accepts the pin or fingerprint, opens password menu for <2 seconds, then asks for pin or fingerprint again.

Menu is also slower than usual to load, causes the phone to hang on a black Firefox background colour screen when loading and only able to be forced to quit if I go back to the home screen, passwords menu comes back on screen if I don't force quit the app (back button goes back to blank passwords screen then asks for login again, android back button does the same.
