If only. Every chrome user said the same thing they’ve said after every other overtake. A poignantly disinterested silence. They just don’t care.
You can literally import passwords from chrome to bitwarden and use it in any browser with an extension. Bitwarden is so much more convenient
Not on my phone it's not.
Firefox Sync works to keep your logins/passwords in sync on both Android and iOS (and the desktop version too, obviously).
Malicious actors thank you for your patronage and passwords. Get an app with a browser extension
Firstly: Firefox can import your Chrome passwords and if you enable/sign up for Firefox Sync (which is better--privacy wise--than your Google account) you'll be able to use them with Firefox mobile (it'll sync your settings and bookmarks too, obviously).
Secondly: You can export your logins from Chrome to a .csv file (hamburger menu in the settings... somewhere; I forget, sorry) which can also be imported into Firefox (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/import-login-data-file) and other password managers. I literally just tested importing both Chrome's and Firefox's saved logins into a KeePassXC database and it worked fine (it didn't automatically figure out which field was what though so I had to manually tell it which column was the password, URL, etc but no big).
Firefox also has the same .csv password export feature BTW.
When I changed from Chrome to Firefox a year ago or so, Firefox imported Chrome's saved passwords, along with bookmarks and everything else.
You can easily export passwords from Chrome as a CSV and directly import them to Firefox.
Just use a 3rd party password manager, bitwarden will transfer them for you. Also, having used both, bitwarden is superior.
