Feature request: Add notes to entries
Dear devs
Thank you for making this great piece of software. It really makes my life easier and I use it daily.
The only thing I'm missing is the ability to add notes to password entries, multi-line if possible. Also, how about adding titles to entries?
This would give the app more versatility. It would allow us to save different kinds of information safely and in one place only.
Thanks for your feedback. Supporting additional information like notes or titles is something we're interested in supporting.
Out of curiosity, what are you most interested in using a notes field for?
Cool!
Well, I've been using keepass+KeePassHttp-Connector before LockWise.
- I used it mainly (98%) for URL-username-password combinations, without any notes
- Sometimes, I annotated entries with additional info like IMAP and SMTP for email accounts
- Sometimes, I noted the real name of the person the login belongs to (my family members constantly forget their passwords :1st_place_medal: )
- I also had some entries for completely different data, like credit cards
Btw: I think a password generator would be handy. Weak and identical passwords might be more dangerous than good passwords stored in plain text, no?
Thanks for feedback!

I am a web developer and I have to work with a lot of customer databases, all hosted by the same provider and accessible unter the same URL. That's why I have more than 50 logins with usernames likes "u76820" and I always have to look in an external tool which one is the login of a specific customer.
I don't need a lot of features for password management in Firefox. But a notes field is this one thing I really miss in Firefox.
+1 On notes! Would be really useful as either for providing context for the password or for storing different pieces of information entirely. Being able to securely store and sync information such as credit card information, SSN, passport numbers, etc. would be very useful. LastPass already provides the option by having some pre-designed forms with the fields one might want for each type of note (e.g. choose passport, and then it has a form with fields like name, country, number etc.). Thanks for the awesome work!
In dashlane I use entry notes to store things like 2FA backup codes, secret question answers, etc. I'd consider this essentially a requirement.

Sometimes is not a website but a password for something else. so it might be awesome if you could search also by the content on the notes
Thank you!
I also use notes fields for 2fa recovery codes, and websites with a lot of challenge / answer questions. I'm in the same boat, missing this field is the only thing keeping my passpack account going, otherwise I'd move everything to lockwise.
Notes are also extremely helpful for other type of credential data, like SSH keys and API tokens.
Thanks Mozilla for all your great work!
Is there any progress in development of an additional notes field? I need this because I often have to login on the same website with many different logins. What I see at login form is a list of equal looking usernames like "c37283748" and "c38475646" and so on. A notes field would help a lot.
Thank you all for your work on this project.
I use the notes field to store the answers to security questions.
Checking in to see if there are any developments on this? My usecase is to store security questions and answers for many websites as well as helpful notes and reminders about the status of my user accounts on the various websites. I currently use KeyPass, but finding it harder and harder to manage it across multiple devices.
+1 I think, there is a real use-case for credit-card data, for obvious reasons; and simple secure notes for things like 2FA unlock keys. All synced to all my devices would make Lockwise a one-stop-shop solution for securint 99% of my life.
+1. Yes, please. Coming from trying 1Password and LastPass to now Lockwise, this would be very nice to have. If not a separate notes type feature, then just an optional multi-line textbox per Login/Pass entry would be great.
Dear team, as probably other people due to the last news from LastPass, I am trying to fully embrace Firefox, also as password manager (Lockwise), and I also miss the notes. As a matter of fact many of my entries have some. Do you see this coming any soon? thanks!
Please read the README:
The browser add-on repository for Firefox Lockwise prior to being integrated into Firefox 70+ (as about:logins). We may use this repository in the future to bring Lockwise to other browsers via an extension but for now it is unmaintained. Issues with the functionality built-into Firefox should be filed using the links at the top of the Password Manager Wiki. You can use your GitHub account for that.
Actually a Mozilla operated password manager is the thing this should be developed to. I would even pay a montly fee if the features are equivalent to common password managers - as Mozilla is mostly trustworthy. It should be considered ot offer the current feature-set to be for free and enhanced features (storing notes or even documents and configuring a policy for generated password) for paying users. Usually I would not recomment to raise fees, but for me it's actually important to keep Mozilla alive!
Well,
I think, the current feature set is slightly below what would make it my daily password manager; so keeping this free, and making anything else paid would pretty much defeat the purpose as a trustworthy and widely adopted alternative.
On the other hand, I'd not shy away from financially support the project. So a model similar to Bitwarden would totally make me want to chip in.
Regards, Dan

Any updates on this feature request? Not having this feature is preventing me (and likely many others) from moving 100% to Lockwise.
I stumbled on this issue today.
I use AWS and, like other managed services, I need an extra field for the organization ID.
Right now, my hack is to append the organization ID, separated with an '@', to my username.
For my use case, a free-form field is sufficient, but naming the field based on the form's field ID would be helpful. Organization-aware solution is another approach, but that will be way too complex.
LastPass and Bitwarden both have this. It's a pretty standard, critical feature in a password manager these days.
