Firefox for Android app, build 132.0.2.

When opening the password tab, the prompt to enter your devices pin or password appears as it should. However, spamming the "cancel" button on the prompt or the Android's back button (about 4 or 5 times) allows you to go to the password manager and view all usernames and passwords without reentering the device's pin/password.

To recreate: open the password tab, enter pin prompt opens, pressing cancel reopens the pin prompt, pressing cancel 4 or 5 times opens the password manager without verification.

I had saved password on my old pc which i dont have now and also bookmarked the site on my fire fox .ho can i access to the password and the site now from my android phone? It was about 3 and half years ago before my divorce. It is very important to me. Thanks

Bear with me please.

So, just using "default" profile and no associated email, i accidentally pressed the passwords menu. This opens an unlock screen that, i think is supposed to look exactly like the stock Android one but it is different. It prompts for a pin, which i didnt want to provide, but wouldnt allow me to back a page using 3 button back arrow (havent tested with gestures though) . SO i input enough incorrect pin codes. It rate limits you after about 5 failed attempts. Except i found if i repeatedly tap the back button quickly, the rate limit is instantly bypassed again immediately and i can continue indefinately until i guess the pin...

Doesnt inspire much confidence yet.. but it's getting there!

Someone has changed my account. When you sign into an account they ask for email and password. That's for safety. When I went into firefox it said I had signed out which I hadn't. So I resigned up. Put my email in and when it came to put in password it was autofilled, which was not me ne,vi don't autofill anything besid s way too many dots. Then I finally got the dots deleted and put my n my password and it told me its wrong and I can't get into it

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).

I'm having a huge problem logging into or signing into my Firefox Account for Android either first time ever or first time with my new Password anyway? I can't remember. It won't give me a box for the Password no matter what so I can't Sign In! Respectfully, Barry
