Apple Releases iCloud Passwords Add-On for Firefox

Apple now has a dedicated iCloud Passwords add-on designed for the Firefox browser, which means Firefox users can access passwords and logins stored in the Passwords app or iCloud Keychain when using Firefox on a Mac.

The extension is being distributed by Apple, but it appears that it was originally created by a third-party developer and later taken over and updated by Apple.

With the ‌iCloud‌ Passwords extension, passwords stored in ‌iCloud‌ Keychain can be securely filled in automatically when signing into websites in Firefox. New passwords created in Firefox are also saved to ‌iCloud‌ Keychain, which makes them available across Apple devices, plus there is an option to generate verification codes.

Alongside iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia 15, Apple introduced a dedicated Passwords app that houses all passwords and logins, making them easier to access and manage. The extension works with the Passwords app in macOS Sequoia, but it is also compatible with macOS Sonoma. In macOS Sonoma, passwords and login information are stored in the Passwords section of the Settings app.

This is ... rather cool of Apple to do.

I use 1Password v6 (still) and to get Firefox integration, I manually install 1P's ancient xpi into Firefox to get password fill integration. This might be move me closer to a switch.

I wish it didn’t ask for a verification code every single time I want to use password. Make an option for remember for a day or something.

I don't like my passwords to be in a cloud...
Don't worry. The passwords are not stored; what is stored are your passwords after encryption. If someone finds them, they are useless.
