I use Dashlane password manager which only half works in Firefox on my Samsung s22 Ultra. I have to manually open Dashlane copy a password and paste it into Firefox. At that point it would automatically fill. But that's not the real problem. I opened up the clipboard and found a whole collection of my passwords. How do I set up Firefox to clear the clipboard on exit?

Hi Gordon

In Android, the clipboard is linked to the keyboard app that you have installed on your device. In the settings for the keyboard should be the means to clear the clipboard.

I hope that this helps.

Thankyou Paul, Yes found how to do that. Would be good if the was a auto setting to remove clipboard history in android settings. A lot of people copy and paste secure data so leaving traces is a problem.

I must be more careful....
