- Rated 1 out of 5by JohnyJohny, a month agoexactly the same problem as many people here. The app is excellent until the password doesn't work and you lost all your bookmarks. For me, it's the second time and I quite.
It's mentionned that you have to make regulary backup but bookmarks are not enough critical to setup a professionnel backup process, we don't want to worry about backup. - Rated 1 out of 5by RH, 2 months agoIt works until it doesn't. I found exactly the same as many other reviewers: this add-on has a lot of great features, and it works well... until it doesn't. The Private Bookmarks password fails to work after some time. Twice I used this add-on to save bookmarks... and twice, for no apparent reason, the password is no longer remembered by the extension, so I can't unlock these bookmarks. With that, the bookmarks are gone forever. This is a great concept that unfortunately fails at a critical point.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Steve, 3 months agoIt worked great for months until it didn't.
I'm not sure what broke it but possibly my MacOS upgrade to 14.6. Suddenly Firefox wouldn't respond to the Shift-Option-8 hotkey, which is where you enter your password.
I tried reinstalling the add-on, rebooting, etc. Unfortunately, it's evident that I also lost all those private bookmarks in the process, which weren't so much private but archived in Private Bookmarks so they wouldn't be accidentally deleted.
I filed a bug report with the developer last week but I haven't received an acknowledgement of it and the bug hasn't been assigned. - Rated 1 out of 5by Kebabsaus, 5 months ago

- Rated 2 out of 5by PeterCPH, 7 months agoI have used this addon for 4-5 years without a hazzle. But this morning it stopped accepted my password... Luckily I make weekly backups of the mozilla folder so I still have access to my hidden links.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Толстяк, a year agoHey Danny Champ, you're a fool. Addons don't have access to your Mozilla Firefox profile. "Private Bookmarks" only puts your passwords locally on one device! )))
- Rated 1 out of 5by Danny Champ, a year agoThere may well be a private folder, hidden behind a password on my PC. However, on my linked phone and tablet, the sites are visible, WITH NO PASSWORD!! For anyone to see!!
I urge you not to use this addon - Rated 5 out of 5by iJ, a year ago
