Firefox password sync just works. It's one of those things I never think about. Watching friends and family struggle with bespoke, poorly integrated password managers makes me cringe and is one of the big reasons I enjoy the seamless experience of the built-in Firefox password manager.
Can Firefox password manager work in other apps on Android?
Thank you to Bitwarden for relicensing a thing to Free/Open License! Unfortunately, I no longer recommend Bitwarden for normal people because the built-in password manager in Firefox is too good. But for anyone with more advance needs (or who doesn't trust a password manager built into a web browser, I always recommend Bitwarden because KeepassXC + syncing is way too difficult for normal people.
If only they could add labels to the name/password combination. I have several accounts stored for a website, with generated gibberish logins that I cannot change and sometimes it takes me multiple tries to get to the correct account.
Also, sometimes a site has two password fields - two secret codes - and for this usecase the password manager doesn't work very well either and remembers only one field.
Other than that, I love how it just works, you add a password on one device and have it seamlessly available on the other with a very little setup. It's a nice experience.

Another usecase for named logins are those multiple routers that you administer for your friends and family that all have http://192.168.1.1
Thank you Bitwarden for listening. This kind of stuff gives me hope for the business model of Open Source.

I think this is the correct way of handling a rugpull scare, bug or not.

I don't doubt the quality of Firefox's password manager, or your honesty.
But normal people just don't use Firefox.
