I think it would be helpful if it was possible to add custom fields (or a textarea for notes) to stored passwords to securely store additional information (like security questions, customer support pins, etc.)

Additionally it would be nice to be able to store and sync other credentials and information in Firefox, that don't link to websites, like (recovery-)keys for BitLocker/TrueCrypt/LUKS-LVM partitions, WiFi Passwords and Credit Cards. Of cause you won't have auto-fill, etc., but it wouldn't cause any harm to have more like a "Firefox secure wallet"...

Yes, adding a text area below a password profile would be great! 

Passwords kept on an iPhone have a notes field below the website, username & password.  I use it to note my airline advantage #, security hints or answers, etc. The notes area should be kept secure as well.

Where are we with this feature. I "Thumbs Up'd" a request from 2022 and it's now 2025. I have logins with three fields: Username, Password, Account Number and really would appreciate being able to say all three credentials for quick login.

and a filed where the actual name of the website could be stored, since many sites URL has nothing to do with the actual site that one might remember if one needed to search a pw or user.

I am afraid nothing will happen. But it is unfortunate that there ist not even a statement that there is no intention to solve this. And there is no advice how to code this on one's own, perhaps with help of a LLM.

maybe Llama v4?

and what also would be handy would be a key combo shortcut that one could use to get to passwords, rather than several clicks.

I don't think, that it should be too extensive or complicated.

The login data is saved in an JSON file apart from the passwords.
This logins.json is updated by passwordmgr / passwordstorage.sys.mjs.
One could add some new field-keys like 'description' or 'additional_info'. Then this can be displayed in the login promt and the LoginAutocomplete next to forms with password inputs.

Third part would be the output in the about:logins page. There the new field has to be shown as editable input field.

I don't think that it could be setup as a PlugIn, because the autoComplete dialog does not have information about the IDs of the login rows.

It's not the coolest or most popular feature – I know,
but I think it would be a huge benefit and improvement.


Would be cool, if some developer could give it a feedback.

My experience is that my wife and I share the same telco provider. Accessing to their website everytime I'm asked username and pswd,  but usernames are just 9 digits number. I always mix my ID with my wife's ID, so I need to log-out and log-in again with right credentials.

A simple note filed in pswd manager (like in Brave) and maybe visible as tooltip during input data will be useful!

Thanks a lot!

Has there been any traction on this? I miss having other fields auto fill like google and such.

Almost 3 years later and we still don't have this feature. C'mon Firefox! Chrome and Edge both provide a Password Notes text box. Please add a text box area for Password notes where we can add details, such as why the password was reset (hack, requirement, system update, etc). Please again and thank you.

I am agree and i have more better suggestion than it was posted 📫  Mozilla should make a separate app for Mobiles 📱devicess to manage credentials like personal identity, credit cards, wifi passwords, Notes & and passwords. Currently Mozilla's password maanger have not following fields:

1 Tittle, 2TOTP, 3Notes,  4both email & username in seprate fields not in one, 5Passkey.

Card have no option to add CVV, and expiry date should be like 31 not the 2031, 28 not the 2028.

When one has several accounts on a given platform, and identifiers are not human-legible (e.g. string of digits), the extra field would help to explicitly distinguish which identifier corresponds to which account.
