Do I always have to open Dropbox Password app on my device first?
My dropbox passwords do not suggest or autofill in APPs and Firefox browser tabs on my Android (v14) samsung tablet (UI6.1, SM-X210).

Hi severard, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
When you click the extension, or the mobile app, are you able to access your Passwords account from there normally?
This will help me to assist further!

The ext file isnt working how I thought it would. i downloaded the 3.32.0 dropbox password ext off your website but it fails to run. it just says no app found to open xpi file
I can access my dropbox password app.

severard, what if you remove the Dropbox Passwords extension from your web browser, and add it back after that? Are you still having trouble with the auto-fill feature?

Maybe I wasnt clear. i cannot install the extension. I downloaded it but when I click on it there is an error msg. how do I add it to the firefox browser? I went to extension manage and tried to add it but the information msg appears telling me there is no app to open the xpi file

In that case, it means that the issue comes from Firefox severard
Did you try on a private browsing window perhaps to see if this is caused by another browser extension you're using perhaps?
