Using Firefox extension on smartphone


Hello everyone,
I’m using the Bitwarden extension on Firefox for Android. When I open the extension to look up a password, Firefox won’t let me go back to the previous webpage I was viewing. I have to close the browser and go back to that website. I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or if the extension is malfunctioning. I would appreciate your feedback on how to fix this issue. Thank you.

You don’t use a Bitwarden extension to autofill browsers and apps on Android; you install the Bitwarden app. So, you can uninstall or disable the Bitwarden extension on your Android Firefox, install the Android app, and follow these instructions for autofill:

@Ludelca Welcome to the forum!

I don’t have any suggestions for you, but I want to point out that Bitwarden does not officially support the use of its browser extensions on Android systems — this setup is expected not to always work correctly.

@Neuron5569 has pointed you to the officially supported solution for Android users in the comment above.

@Ludelca in addition to the documentation linked above, there are also short videos to help you get started with inline or popup autofill on Android.
