That’s really a shame. I’ve installed Lockwise for my parents on iOS because it was the simplest way to use their Firefox passwords on the computer and on iOS devices. They don’t need something as complicated as Bitwarden or Lastpass, just a simple password manager. Sure, I can install Firefox on their devices, but that’s an icon more they won’t understand. Can’t say I didn’t see it coming. Lockwise was full of bugs…
Mozilla has stated that they will add the autofill functionality to Firefox for the system-wide use.

Could you elaborate? I'm not sure what TFA stands for in this context. If you meant 2FA (two factor authentication), that doesn't solve the problem of managing passwords.
TFA = The F*cking Article, a version of RTFM, basically. > Note: Firefox for iOS will already sync your saved Lockwise passwords. You can currently only use those inside Firefox. Check back for updates in December 2021 on how to use Firefox for iOS as your system-wide password manager.

Not sure what you are writing regarding Firefox Send and Lockwise. They are/were good, or at least good for me.
They are decent - but they are undermining the development of the Firefox browser by consuming lots of precious time and money which is not what Firefox needs right now. Remember that Mozilla get's 90%+ of its funding, not from donations, but from Google for being the default search engine. Firefox's market share is now ~4%, dangerously close to where Google might decide that the payout isn't worth it. And close enou…
Another Mozilla project bites the dust. You have one job: Build Firefox. Drop the side projects.
It looks like they are working on integrating this functionality into the main Firefox apps, which makes more branding sense anyway. As it was the password management was just a feature of the browser on desktop, but a whole different product with its own brand name on mobile.
When do we fork Firefox because Mozilla is a failure at their job? They've managed to lose almost all their market popularity, mobile Firefox share is almost nonexistent, they pay their executives extremely disproportionately compared to most nonprofits, they have expanded into countless failed side projects (Firefox OS, Firefox Send) and vestigial side projects they aren't good at (Pocket, Firefox Focus, Firefox Rea…
> When do we fork Firefox because Mozilla is a failure at their job? When we can and will do better. FWIW, I heard Mozilla is offering full refunds to everyone that purchased Lockwise, which is way better than you'd get from any for-profit company.
I am not happy about this. I like having the standalone Lockwise app on my Android phone as a password manager. When the app is discontinued, will I still be able to use autofill in other apps? And what about the apps where autofill doesn't work? Having to open my browser for every password I need to copy on my phone just seems clunky and stupid. I'm so fucking sick of Mozilla breaking their UX flows for every damn t…
> Also, having to open my browser for every password I need to copy on my phone just seems clunky and stupid. You don't (at least for Android), the functionality of Lockwise appears to have been replicated in Firefox. There's a toggle in the logins and passwords settings section of Firefox to allow it to fill in passwords for other apps. Apparently they're rolling it out in iOS next month, according to the article (a…
They could have worded it as All Lockwise functions being integrated into Firefox, iOS version coming in December.
Nope, this is it. Or may be it is me being dumb. But judging from some comments here this support document is extremely unclear.
Which is very typical of modern day Mozilla.
