description Mozilla Firefox Lockwise Overview

Firefox Lockwise is the built-in password manager for the Firefox browser. It securely stores passwords you save in Firefox and makes them accessible via a mobile app. It's completely free and uses Firefox's sync encryption. However, it is extremely basic compared to dedicated managers.

It lacks features like secure sharing, family plans, advanced password generation, or audit tools. It's essentially a synced list of your browser-saved passwords with a dedicated viewer. This makes it suitable only for individual Firefox users who need minimal, cross-device access to their passwords without any team or advanced security features.

It ranks lower due to its limited scope.

help Mozilla Firefox Lockwise FAQ

What happened to Firefox Lockwise?

Firefox Lockwise was discontinued as a separate mobile app in December 2021. Its password-saving and autofill features were moved into Firefox itself.

Can Firefox Lockwise passwords sync between devices?

Yes, Firefox Password Sync can make saved logins available across signed-in Firefox browsers. Sync is free and uses Mozilla's encrypted Firefox account system.

Does Firefox Lockwise work with Chrome or Safari?

Lockwise was designed for Firefox, not as a full standalone manager for Chrome or Safari. Users changing browsers generally need to export passwords or use a cross-browser manager such as Bitwarden or 1Password.

Is Firefox Lockwise a replacement for 1Password?

It covers basic password storage, autofill, and password generation inside Firefox at no cost. 1Password adds features such as family vaults, sharing, and broader app support, so it is more suitable for multi-device or team use.
