Firefox Lockwise (formerly Lockbox[3]) is a deprecated[4] password manager for the Firefox web browser, as well as the mobile operating systems iOS and Android.[5][6] On desktop, Lockwise was simply part of Firefox,[7] 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.[8] It also featured a built-in random password generator.[9] The application and branding have since been "phased out."[10]
History
[edit | edit source]Developed by Mozilla, it was originally named Firefox Lockbox in 2018.[11] It was renamed "Lockwise" in May 2019.[12][13] It was introduced for iOS on 10 July 2018 as part of the Test Pilot program.[14] On 26 March 2019, it was released for Android.[15]
On desktop, Lockwise started out as a browser addon. Alphas were released between March and August 2019.[16] Since Firefox version 70, Lockwise has been integrated into the browser[17] (accessible at about:logins),[7] having replaced a basic password manager presented in a popup window.[18]
Mozilla ended support for Firefox Lockwise on December 13, 2021.[19][20]
