Bruce Davidson (ID: 0000006ec38435f4) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 05/10/2022 Not secure... After the first use, the password displays as the default entry when I set the cursor on the field. So even my cat figured it out. That's pretty lame.

Wes Horne (ID: 0000008b94e5dcd1) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 12/29/2018 This extension works, but has two issues to be fixed until I'll use it again. 1. The password is not obscured when unlocking screen. This is a big deal for my purposes. 2. This actually breaks a lot of visual elements on Scratch.mit.edu, which is really annoying for me. Otherwise, this extension is pretty good, but I really need #2 to be fixed before I'll consider using it.
