Hello,

Firefox for iOS does not sync my passwords. The mobile app is able to retrieve my bookmarks, tabs, history... basically everything but my logins. I have chosen to sync logins across all my devices, works fine on my macbook and desktop PC. I downloaded Firefox Lockwise for ios to see if it could access my passwords and it can. Only the Firefox ios web browser is the problem. As for my own attempts at troubleshooting, I have logged out of all my devices (Firefox browser for PC and mac) and logged back in, deleted the Firefox for ios web browser and reinstalled it twice.

Any help would be appreciated.

OBW47,

Thanks for your reply. On all three of the my synced devices, logins and passwords are already turned on - that includes Firefox for iOS.

Thanks

There are multiple settings for login info in iOS. Logins and Passwords allows those items to be saved. The steps I listed above are specific to syncing.

Just making sure we're on the same page.
