Reviews for iCloud Passwords
iCloud Passwords by Apple Inc.
Review by Avakining
Rated 4 out of 5
by Avakining, 10 days agoVery handy, and I'm super glad iCloud Passwords has finally come to Firefox. There are a few bugs (needing to use 2FA every time Firefox re-opens in order to fill; lagging a LOT on some pages with a lot of text boxes), but overall very helpful.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 18748425, 7 hours agoNeed to re-authenticate very often which is extremely annoying
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14222923, a day agoIt needs to be working on Windows to be actually useful.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18743413, 3 days ago"Not available for Firefox for Windows." Why the hell not, Apple? Edge and Chrome are the most privacy-invasive products in the known universe but they're the only ones you support? The value of having iCloud passwords under Firefox for Mac is marginal, because... WE ALREADY HAVE A PASSWORDS APP.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18742814, 4 days agoSeems to work well. Wish it didn't auto open the password fill modal when I load a page and it seems like that modal and the default firefox modal don't play well together. Room for improvement for sure, but nice to have the integration none the less
- Rated 1 out of 5by nurgles, 4 days agoCurrently broken, asks me to download MacOS Sonoma when I'm running Firefox 133.0.3 on MacOS Sequoia 15.2
- Rated 3 out of 5by higels, 7 days agoThings work reasonable well after deleting the old extension and reinstalling.
It's not quite as well integrated as passwords are in Safari (no password generation, that I can see at least), but it gets the job done.
A few notes:
* it doesn't display the title of the password in the dropdown when allowing you to select which one to use, only the username + the first website associated with it.
* Using Grafana, when clicking on a dropdown selector for a variable with a large number of selectable options (1,000+), the page often becomes completely unresponsive, and I'll get a banner telling me that "*iCloud Passwords" is slowing down Firefox. To speed up your browser, stop that extension." after about 10 seconds [0]. (FF 133.0.3 (aarch64), Passwords Version 1.2 (20620.1.16.11.8), Extension 3.0.6, about 400 stored Passwords)
* Apple really needs to clarify the lineage of the extension on the homepage. It's confusing looking through older comments and seeing a developer with seemingly no association to Apple responding to issues. I had to verify through news articles that they had actually acquired the extension.
[0] Interestingly, I stopped using Safari because poor performance when using this same web app made it unusable. - Rated 1 out of 5by Deranged, 7 days agoInstead of writing an original review, I'm just going to copy and paste what somebody else wrote a week ago, because it is exactly my experience: "Using Firefox 133.0.3 on Sequoia 15.1.1. Pop-up appears but nothing happens beyond that. Doesn't fill in password info."

- Rated 1 out of 5by niwi, 7 days agoOriginally this add-on was working not great but good enough for using iCloud passwords. It was written by someone not working for Apple. Then it was officially adopted by Apple. Since then it no longer works reliable.
However, the add-on by the original author is still available on Github and works fine. I hope Apple is seriously interested in supporting Firefox and has not just adopted the add-on to destroy it as an benefit for Safari. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13562733, 8 days ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by Ihsan CAGIRICI, 9 days agoYani yıl olmuş kaç hala eksikleri var. Örneğin Windows üzerindeki firefox tarayıcımda kullanamıyorum.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 17403515, 10 days agoKeeps on slowing down the browser when looking at pages like Reddit and bringing up the prompt to kill the extension. It works for the most part but it still needs TLC.

- Rated 1 out of 5by salivatingostrich52, 10 days agoThe app slows down websites, prompts me to stop the extension. This makes the website completely unusable. I haven't found this useful at all since i've installed it and it's caused more harm than good so far. I hope this extension gets improved in the future.

Macbook air - Rated 1 out of 5by tombeta, 12 days agoIMHO ein schlechter Scherz von Apple. Die Usability ist einfach nur eine Katastophe - das Plugin behindert mich mehr als dass es mir hilft: Erst mal muss ich mich ständig neu authentifizieren - mit einem zweiten Faktor. Das durchgeführt, füllt das Plugin das gerade angezeigte Formular noch nicht, ich muss erst neu laden - um dann noch mal(!) einen Fingerabdruck da lassen.
Und das Beste: In der Liste der im Formular jetzt vorgeschlagenen Accounts kann ich nicht genau identifizieren welchen Account "Passwörter" mir gerade zum ausfüllen anbietet. Komischer Weise läuft das alles in Safari deutlich besser.
Ich denke, dass sie diese Hürden absichtlich einbauen, damit sie den Umstieg auf Safari nudgen. Ein weiterer Grund bei Bitwarden oder 1PW zu bleiben. - Rated 1 out of 5by Daniel, 12 days agoUsually works great, except when visiting the phosphor icons website and clicking on "explore icons". There it freezes the page and a message appears, roughly translated with "iCloud passwords is slowing down firefox developer edition". Seems like the extension contains an infinite loop, don't know if this is the right way to file a bug report?
Edit: now also froze the page on shopify docs, turned it off and changed rating to 1 star - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17680968, 12 days agoVery Apple. Just works (*not)
Warnings from browser and slows down firefox until pages wont load.
I guess I'll disable it and try again in 6 months
