- Rated 5 out of 5by The Beard Below My Chin, 6 years agoFirst of thanks for keeping it updated, I'm a long time user. I have a few nitpicks that haven't been addressed in the latest version: The small pop-up clips too much information and I never use it, could you make it re-sizable? Could you add hot keys? One last thing, will advanced search ever make a return?
Developer response
posted 6 years agoThere are size limitations set by the browser for small popups. If you want to see more information use the bigger and resizable dialog (right mouseclick, first option).
User definable shortcut keys are on my todo list, the possibility for this was made available to add-ons recently. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14210683, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Cyberknight, 6 years agoThis is one of the essential add-ons on any Firefox. At work, I have to use Windows Vista, so I'm stuck with Firefox 52 ESR, but luckily, version 1.4 works wonderfully there! Recently, I noticed it works somewhat better than on the Firefox Quantum at home: I cannot edit password field entries with version 2.0! I know the field names, I know the data there are in them, but they simply don't show up on listing or searching. I wonder if that's a Firefox Quantum limitation (for improving security, that ends up opening a security hole, because I cannot delete those fields' data).
Developer response
posted 6 years agoPassword fields are not stored by this add-on, that is by design. Firefox itself however will save this data (if you chose to do so), but will do that in protected storage. The Form History Control (or any other extension) has no access to that internal storage of Firefox. - Rated 3 out of 5by loukote, 7 years agoLooking forward for a sync across devices.
Does not work on mobile FF - impossible to interact (copy etc buttons do not respond).Developer response
posted 6 years agoSyncing settings using the standard synchronization mechanism would be no problem but syncing data (form history) would be impossible because of the 100KB size limit. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12552268, 7 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by MiZiGe, 7 years agoWould be nice if I could disable "remembering" certain field types or sites. Otherwise, a great replacement for lazarus :)

- Rated 5 out of 5by M@yeulC, 7 years agoI love how this can help me save my work when I'm typing directly into text fields! This extension is a must.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 11707642, 7 years agoVery unreliable. Doesn't show the latest entries by default, has a messy interface and truncates whatever you've typed randomly. Borderline useless except for finding short messages.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Philipp Kewisch, 7 years agoThis add-on is a life saver when a site borks and removes the text you've drafted, or reloads for no apparent reason, or just decides to log you out. Couldn't live without it.

- Rated 5 out of 5by jidanni, 7 years agoJust the thing for tax forms that might take days to complete but say:
"One-time submission
The online FBAR form does not allow you to save your progress during
form completion as it is designed to benefit filers who are ready to
file the FBAR today. If you have gathered all information needed to
complete and submit the FBAR in a one-sitting, then the online form
might be right for you." - Rated 4 out of 5by henmedia, 7 years ago
