Why doesn't Firefox on iPad fill in user names and passwords for me?

The instructions to accomplish this don't work because the methods referred to aren't there.

I just discovered that the android phone (Samsung A71) I am currently using was in fact still using Lockwise for Auto Fill.

How do I force this old copy of Lockwise to do a final sync before I uninstall it. I do know that at least some of the passwords stored in it are up to date. At this time, I DO NOT have access to a PC. I DO have access to a more recent android phone (Samsung A53 5G) that DOES NOT have Lockwise installed and is using the most up-to-date version of FireFox for Android.

Also is firefox typed out in lowercase or one of these ways: "Firefox" or "FireFox"? I have a habit of camelcasing some computer terms left over from my days as a UNIX Administrator (AT&T Bell Labs versions and not any BSD versions) and want to know the proper way to type it (from the horse's mouth so to speak).

Regards

New iPhone 14 pro - Moved everything over from the old phone - Signed into Firefox and synced - All bookmarks are present - The option to use saved login information from FF is present - The websites where I have saved logins are all present and listed in the same order as my desktop (desktop version works fine btw)

The problem is that the usernames and passwords are not present for any of the websites. They are just blank when I try to use it directly from a login screen. (pic#1) I can select the website from the list and FF recognizes and recommends the correct website’s “info”, but when I tap it it just autofills blanks.

If I access passwords from the menu options while I am not trying to login to a specific website, I can see the same correct list of websites with saved info, but it says “no username” for all of them and the passwords are blank. (pic#2&3)

I'm using Firefox on iOS along with the Bitwarden app for password management. I've noticed that Chrome and Safari display Bitwarden suggestions for password autofill directly in the toolbar, but Firefox does not. Is this due to my settings, or could it be an unfixed bug with Firefox on iOS? Has anyone else encountered this issue or knows if it's being addressed?

Ive come back to firefox for android after a year of using other browser,bbut there is no setting i can find.

1, i visit a login page The page has the username but the password field is blank.

2, i select the link at bottom tbat says passwords.

3, a list pops up, and one of the listed items is to pick a saved password.

4, i pick the saved password, then all the urls are in the background while a thumprint security check is showing.

5, i put my thumb on the screen and now it lets me see all the saved passwords.

6, i select the correct url whos password is the right one.

7, it returns back to the original login page BLANK

It seams to me auto fill is switched on, but its not working, or the thumbnail security is blacking the transfer.

So ive deleted the url and password saved, there was only one, then ive gone to the login page and typed in the username and password, enter. Firefox asks if i wish to save the logon details, i do

But each time i go to the login page the password is blank?

I should add the url is a link to my network drives, so its an ip address like 192.168.x.xx

So ehy is android firefox no longer inserting the details, its the latest version, ive also cleared cache both, and it losds firefox as if its the first time i ran it. I set everything up to what i want, auto login is on.

I sign in with my account and sync brings back my desktop bookmarks saved logins etc.

Still there is only one url saved, ive seen this happen sometimes when thete is 2 saved logins for same url, but right now there is only one saved bookmark, and only one saved user name and password.

Anything i can do, or back to the browser i was using. Ive used the new android fitefox ever since it updated to the new one, most of the time it sat ln my phone unused, so i made sure jt had no update.

Sorry this is long, but ill be told to make sure the suto fill or auto login is on. Ive been through sll its settings.

Thanks

Some websites in Bangladesh are not autofilling properly using mobile browser. IE https://ldtax.gov.bd/citizen/register

Please take care

I dont know how to get back to my original question. There was information i missed.

I said firfox would not auto login, but although i used ip addresses i didnt say that the auto login works on normal internet sites.

So to clarify, the problem started a while ago now, but badically i have 4 network drives, the username and password is saved for the login to those 4 drives.

Normally i eould click a link 192.168.X.X and the admin login page loads

On the android phone it shows nothing, both boxes are blank, but on the desktop the user name is filled in, and a drop down list shows just one password, i select it and login.

So the auto login is only failing on the local network login page, i cant see anything on the android phone except the password link button that takes me to the whole list of passwords, but like i said if i use my thumb to unlock and select the correct password it returns back to login page blank.

Ive just loaded desktop firefox and there is a warning that "connection not secure"

I dont see that warning on my android, so im guessing that the full web address to my network drive is https://192.168.x.x

So im guessing passwords are not available for secured sites?

It might be the WD NAS that has changed something, because i never had this problem on the phone or disktop, it was the phone im using mostly, in fact i can no longer use the phone this way, i gave up typing in usernames and passwords a long time ago.

So right now its quicker to turn on the laptop and access the 4 network drives.

So sorry if my information made you suspect something else. I know nothing about the change WD has done, i do know it use to put up a long code for the address, but thats gone now and in both desktop and android, it hides tge http or https so im never going to know whats going on.

So i was using android, i would select a bookmark to WD network drive and it use to put in all the information, all i did was click the login button .

So that stopped working, if i visit say ebay.co.uk i get automatically logged in, or if im asked then the correct details is already put in the boxes and i just clickogin.

So only my local network drives, and i do remember them updating the firmwear several times, during that time many strange things happend, for example the ip address was changed to a long length mix of numbers and letters, but they fixed that now.

Shame i cant upload a photo, i could link to one on the net?

Can you put this on the end of my last post as a reply? I coukd not find a way of updating

Thanks

Oh i just spotted add images, let me post this first as i dont want to loose it all

Lockwise worked fine but is sadly no more.

I use my fingerprint to unlock my saved passwords on my 'phone. My master password on my laptop is letters, not numbers. My tablet has no fingerprint facility and only offers a numerical keypad. Therefore, I am unable to access my passwords on the tablet. If the PIN requested is NOT my master password, how am I to set up a PIN?

I am seeing a locked Firefox when I am using my email. I am unable to remove it or unlock it. I cannot use auto fill now ..on my android phone while using my email. I don't understand Mozilla configure!!! Phone is [telephone number] Email.. [email address] Please help.

Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy S10E phone. Firefox used to (with my permission) autofill all previously saved id/passwords in all apps. Now I receive a message stating 'unlock Firefox'. My phone itself does not have an password and I don't want it to. Please advise, thank you.
