I-Firefox ye-Android Community Forum

When I try to enter a password for any website after a few updates ago, I don't get the option to enter my password that's saved in my password list into the fields anymore. I have to manually search, copy, and paste the information in. The app will then ask me if I want to update or modify the login information that is unchanged from what should already be in my browser.

Regardless of whether I say yes or no, the password remains unselectable when I go back to that website, and when I manually enter the information, it again asks me if I want to update the login information.

How to export passwords from Firefox Android in readable format like CSV for other password manager apps like KeePass XC or AuthPass? 

Currently as I'm seeing all Gecko-based browsers especially on mobile not just Firefox but also Mull, Fenix, Waterfox and Iceraven, lacks this.

Is this intentional or should I just keep Chrome as my browser because to jump to Firefox, I need basic things to be covered, which I don't see, Mozilla Firefox team doing on its own. 

Other browsers like Opera have proper in-built system of password manager. 

How unfortunate.

Since the upgrade several days ago, I have not been able to select my saved password on some pages, instead I always see "Use strong password" to create a new one. I have not changed my password or anything, and can still see my account information in the saved passwords setting. How can I recover the way to input my password?

Apparently, if there are input boxes for both a username and a password on the page, my account is automatically set as before. Meanwhile, if there is only a password box, Firefox does not allow me to select my saved password.

Firefox 130.0.1 Build #2016044751 on Android 14

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 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.

Can't install yandex.ru mailbox to Firefox for Android. Using generated stecial application password did not get s result anyway

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!

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?

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
