Apple has released an extension for Firefox, giving users the ability to access their iCloud Passwords when using Firefox—at least on macOS.

Password managers can be an important cybersecurity option, as they provide users a way of generating random passwords for different services. iCloud has long given users easy-to-access password management capabilities, including the ability to sync passwords across devices.

Until now, using iCloud Passwords has required using Safari, but Apple has now expanded access to Firefox.

iCloud Passwords lets you fill passwords from iCloud Keychain when signing in to websites using Firefox.

iCloud Passwords lets you securely fill passwords from iCloud Keychain when signing in to websites using Firefox. Any new passwords you create in Firefox are saved to your iCloud Keychain so that they are also available across your Apple devices. The extension can also generate verification codes, which you can set up by right-clicking on a QR code.

At this time, Apple is only releasing the extension for the macOS version of Firefox, not Windows.

The iCloud Passwords extension is compatible with macOS Sonoma or later. It is not available for Windows at this time.

Unfortunately, the extension only has 3.5 star ratings on Firefox’s Extensions website, with many users complaining about inconsistent behavior when trying to unlock and access passwords. In some cases, the extension asks for a fingerprint unlock or password to unlock iCloud Passwords, other times it doesn’t fill anything.

Once Apple irons out the bugs, the extension should provide a solid way for macOS users to use an alternative web browser, while still being able to access their data in the Apple ecosystem.
