Remove ads
Firefox Lockwise (formerly Lockbox[5]) is a deprecated[6] password manager for the Firefox web browser, as well as the mobile operating systems iOS and Android.[7][8] On desktop, Lockwise was simply part of Firefox,[9] whereas on iOS and Android it was available as a standalone app. If Firefox Sync was activated (with a Firefox account), then Lockwise synced passwords between Firefox installations across devices.[10] It also featured a built-in random password generator.[11] The application and branding have since been "phased out."[12]

History
Developed by Mozilla, it was originally named Firefox Lockbox in 2018.[13] It was renamed "Lockwise" in May 2019.[14][15] It was introduced for iOS on 10 July 2018 as part of the Test Pilot program.[16] On 26 March 2019, it was released for Android.[17]
On desktop, Lockwise started out as a browser addon. Alphas were released between March and August 2019.[18] Since Firefox version 70, Lockwise has been integrated into the browser[19] (accessible at about:logins),[9] having replaced a basic password manager presented in a popup window.[20]
Mozilla ended support for Firefox Lockwise on December 13, 2021.[21][22]
