I also feel this extension has little to no use (especially for Firefox) First of all. the auto type sequence is a highly dangerous function. Even if the record inside the keepass database is all set to work for multi page logon, and one changes the global settings by accident. (or update!) all the custom fields are vanished Thus text is just injected into space.
And this is just a KeepassXC bug/~feature~
*sidenote: On Chromium on ubuntu the extension just works out of the box.
On firefox 10 out 10 times this extension is not connected to the database and even if the extension believes to be connected its not, due to KeepassXC not getting kicked alive.
For these hasles it it just not worth the effort.
Just learn the keyboard shortcuts to quickly find and copy the fields needed and insert them manually. The proxy to tunnel the uname/pwd into the browser will not be available i assume.
Second to that: I believe that if your pc is already in a state where you can't trust your computers (basic) functions as per example the clipboard; one has a whole lot of other problems to deal with prior to thinking about security and privacy enhancements
endnote: 5 (Five) stars for the time and effort from the team on KeepassXC itself

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 19733088, 3 days agoEigentlich gut, aber umständlich, funktioniert bei vielen Websites einfach mal gar nicht, das Felderkennungs-Tool zum Zuweisen ebenfalls nicht und kostet daher viel Zeit und Nerven in der Benutzung. Daher kann ich ebenso schnell und gut aus KeepassXC kopieren und einfügen und brauche mich nicht mit diesem AddOn herumschlagen; leider!
- Rated 1 out of 5by John Hills, 10 days agoThe addon randomly shows errors like "KeePassXC-Browser has encountered an error: Key exchange was not successful" which means absolutely nothing to the user and does not help solve the problem in any way. It is the same as showing a message "Error: There has been an error. You're unlucky, too bad for you."

posted 10 days agoGitHub already has an issue about this. In short, there's no way to get details from the API why the key exchange / connection fails. I suggest you take a look at the most common error threads and our Troubleshooting Guide at GitHub. - Rated 5 out of 5by Lani, a month agoIt seems that the path for native-messaging-hosts is hardcoded.
I want to move the file located at [~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/org.keepassxc.keepassxc_browser.json] to [xdg-directory :: ~/.config/mozilla], but it fails.
help me? - Rated 1 out of 5by Ethan, a month agoit doesn't work when the password is on another page after the email. it always puts the wrong password from another account without even asking which account. developers, add a dropdown to ask the user from which account to take the password, don't just put any random password from any random account in the database. changing any setting didn't fix this.
Developer response
posted a month agoFirst of all, this shouldn't happen. There's already a dropdown selector when filling usernames or password from multiple accounts. Selector from the popup works as well. There are some settings that try to fill the password automatically for the selected username. Disabling those should help. If not, please file an issue to GitHub, thanks. - Rated 5 out of 5by A1, a month ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Helkin, 3 months agoGreat extension, love this on my Fedora 43 computer.
I would have love to have this work on Bazitte with it’s firefox in a flatpak - Rated 1 out of 5by FartPie, 3 months agoCurrently completely broken with more restrictive privacy configurations due to a bug (#2672) that was reported over two months ago and patched over a month ago - and still not released.
I would have thought show stopping bugs would be worth a point release, but apparently not.Developer response
posted 3 months agoDear FartPie (love the nick btw), we've been collecting a bunch of various fixes and new features for the release, and it will be published soon. The bug you mentioned was not really high-priority, and not affecting many people so it didn't require a separate hotfix release. - Rated 5 out of 5by Davide, 3 months ago
