Link Password is a useful Firefox add-on praised for encrypting bookmarks and enhancing privacy with a simple interface. However, multiple users report that it frequently fails after Firefox updates, causes irreversible bookmark loss due to decryption issues, and exposes encrypted bookmarks through unmasked protocol messages. Some also note that it only encrypts contents, not folders, and lacks password management features. Overall, it offers valuable security but suffers from stability and compatibility problems that impact reliability.
Pros
- Effectively encrypts Firefox bookmarks and bookmark folders to protect privacy.
- Easy to use and user-friendly interface.
- Provides security by preventing unauthorized access to bookmarks.
- Long-term users find it invaluable and very useful.
Cons
- Stops working after Firefox updates and has compatibility issues with newer versions.
- Encrypted bookmarks sometimes cannot be decrypted, leading to potential data loss.
- Encrypted bookmarks reveal to Firefox that they are encrypted due to unmasked protocol messages.
- Does not encrypt bookmark folders themselves, only their contents, exposing folder structure.
- Inability to change passwords and lack of clear recovery options when issues occur.

| 2023-12-18 | Firefox user 13930952 | | I really like this add-on and consider it invaluable. Easily and effortlessly encrypts/decrypts FF bookmarks. However, I'd like to make a feature request - the ability to prevent bookmarks after being encrypted from showing up as needing Link-Password when you try to open them or use the FF bookmark manager. Right now I get the tell tale message when I try to open an encrypted bookmark "The address wasn’t understood: One of the following (ext linkpassword) is not a registered protocol or is not allowed in this context. You might need to install other software to open this address." which reveals it's an encrypted bookmark using something called "Link Password." Would like to see that masked somehow. |
