Issue with IOS Passwords

Hi on my ipad 10 ios 16.1.1 with firefox 129.2 (44469) I am "paired" or logged in as my username BUT i simply cannot autofill passwords - even though the box "use saved password" appears on sites ive registed....

I then tried logging out and in again and repairing the device and - same deal.

Also, when i goto "settings > passwords" it says:

"to save and automatically fill passwords, enable face id, touch id or a device passcode.....learn more" That support article does not seem to solve anything for me.

I am using firefox on my desktop and my iphone and both of those work.

issue solved - by reading this: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/182lmot/comment/kajgc7v/ [in the ipad]: "Settings > Passwords > Password Options, is Autofill turned on and Firefox checked"

and then watching this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBWqRpgPZ3U&t=126s goto settings > face id and passcode or in my case settings > touch id and passcode

I would suggest the firefox message and support documentation is maybe correct but fundamentally not clear enough.
