Basically broken, like, apparently, all third-party password extensions.
Often doesn't find passwords for sites. Tells you every single time that you've updated the password and asks if you want to resave it, so you have no way to tell if the password has actually changed. It always says it has, whether it has or it hasn't.
Can't find TOTP codes even when they're in Keepass, you have to go copy them by hand.
All-around seems like a half-finished, "beta" release that is almost ready for use, but not quite.
It is extremely nerve-wracking to constantly be told the password has changed, and have to stop and think about whether it has and whether you want to save it, every single time you log into a site. Worse, you can only see this before you have logged in, before you know if the login was any good... it disappears as soon as you're in.
So, basically, it keeps you on your toes, always keeps you guessing and uncertain about what's going on... exactly what you DON'T EVER WANT A PASSWORD MANAGER TO DO.
Extremely disappointing.
EDIT: Response to the developer's comment below: The user guide, which is one mammoth long page from a page 2 or 3 levels deep on the website, contains one instance each of the phrases "new password" and "banner", neither telling me anything about how to fix this. I searched for the word "changed" too, that doesn't appear anywhere in the document at all.
Also, when you do need to use that banner, the buttons don't do anything. Click them, they sit there. Did they work? Did they not? Did anything get saved? No way to know.
I truly hate to criticize a FOSS project but this is really just awful design, to the point I don't trust this thing. If I don't know when passwords are new or not, or whether it's saving them or not, and I have to scour a huge 12,000 word single-page wall of text that doesn't turn up the information I need even when I search it for the specific terms the developer told the manual would instruct me on, so I can't find the new password banner settings by searching for "new password" or "banner" then, sorry, I have to nope out on it. I'm just not reading a 12,000 word manual to figure out how to use a password manager.
Just for fun, I printed the gargantuan "manual" page to a PDF. It's a single page that's 49 pages long when printed. That's what I'm expected to have read just to figure out how to get a password manager to work. That's not a user manual, it's a novella.
I scrolled slowly through the eldritch document's 78 different screenshots to see if there was one of the banner in question, to maybe tip me off where its behavior is documented. If there is one, I could not find it.
I did find the section on the browser integration plugin and read it through carefully, twice. It says nothing about that banner, or how to understand it, or get it to work in a way that seems to make sense. I'll limp along with copying and pasting codes from KeepassXC for TOTP since there's no way I'm going back to Authy or using Google Auth, but for passwords, I've had to go back to the limitations of just using Firefox's built-in password manager. I'd hoped for a better solution than that, but... :-\

2년 전에 게시됨If a password is always offered to a site, or it doesn't find your passwords, your entry URL is probably incorrect. Use the simplest possible form of the URL, for example https://example.com.
Users can modify the settings how the new password created banner is displayed. Reading the User Guide is highly recommended.

- "Error! Credentials cannot be saved or updated to a closed database."
Then open it. Prompt me for the database password. Why can the DB be opened on demand to retrieve passwords, but not to save them? I should not be expected to keep my database open all the time. That is an obvious security vulnerability. So I have it configured to close after 30 seconds. I do not understand why this Addon is so hostile to on-demand database access. - 5점 만점에 5점Firefox 사용자 19944620 님, 6일 전

- It only has offline support. On Linux the configuration is a mess. Sometimes It doesn't talk with my desktop app. Remote support should also be added, so 1 star. I also noticed this while using it: not everything is handled within the browser. When the master password is requested, It switches to the KeepassXC desktop window which makes the experience less convenient. MasterPassword could instead be entered through a small pop-up inside the browser. This is what I would have preferred.

2달 전에 게시됨The whole idea of the extension is that it talks to the desktop app. It has no direct connection to your database, and it will never ask your master password. - 5점 만점에 5점toorootoot 님, 2달 전

- 5점 만점에 2점Firefox 사용자 19733088 님, 5달 전Eigentlich gut, aber umständlich, funktioniert bei vielen Websites einfach mal gar nicht, das Felderkennungs-Tool zum Zuweisen ebenfalls nicht und kostet daher viel Zeit und Nerven in der Benutzung. Daher kann ich ebenso schnell und gut aus KeepassXC kopieren und einfügen und brauche mich nicht mit diesem AddOn herumschlagen; leider!
