<https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/products/firefox/sync-and-save>
<https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/send-tab-firefox-desktop-other-devices>
> Firefox Sync, originally branded Mozilla Weave,\[2\] is a browser
> synchronization feature for Firefox web browsers. It allows users **to
> partially synchronize bookmarks, browsing history, preferences,
> passwords, filled forms, add-ons, and the last 25 opened tabs** across
> multiple computers.\[3\] The feature is included in the desktop
> **Firefox browser, Firefox for iOS, and Firefox for Android**.It keeps
> user data on Mozilla servers, but according to Mozilla **the data is
> encrypted** in such a way that no third party, not even Mozilla, can
> access user information.\[4\] It is also possible for the user to host
> their own Firefox Sync servers, or indeed, for any entity to do
> so.\[5\][^2]
### Monitor
<https://monitor.firefox.com/>
> It informs users if their email address and passwords used has been
> leaked in data breaches, using the database provided by Have I been
> Pwned? (HIBP)[^3]
### Lockwise
> Firefox Lockwise is **the password manager** of the Firefox web
> browser.\[5\]\[6\] On desktop, Lockwise is simply part of
> Firefox;\[7\] whereas on iOS and Android, it is also available as a
> standalone app. [^4]
