In terms of “trustworthiness”, Mozilla is perhaps one of the best companies around (although the bar is admittedly very low).

Mozilla is far more open and above-board, not only about what their software does but also about the decision-making process itself, than pretty much any other company.

While I am in the “don’t trust anybody with your data unless you have to” camp, and so I agree with the sentiment insofar as Mozilla is included in the group of “anybody”, singling Mozilla out as a particular threat is mistaken. To all the “don’t trust Mozilla with your data” commenters: Now You: What's your take on Lockbox and Notes for mobile devices? The apps may be built into Firefox one day but there is no guarantee for that. Mozilla uses experiments to test features that may one day be integrated into Firefox natively.įirefox Lockbox is offered as an application for iOS that you can install from the Apple Store whereas Notes by Firefox: A Secure Notepad App is available on Google Play instead.īoth require a Firefox Account and Firefox Sync. You may want to check the "your privacy" section as it lists data collected specifically by that experiment. Firefox Lockbox and Notes are listed on the page and you see who was involved in the creation and get download links. Head over to the official Firefox Test Pilot website. Notes does not appear to be restricted to certain geographical regions. You can create notes on Android and have them synced to your desktop Firefox installations, or read notes on Android that you jotted down on the desktop. Notes can be used as a standalone application to take notes but one of its main advantages is that it syncs notes between Firefox installations.

Users can download and install Notes from the official store to keep their notes in sync between other Firefox installations and the Android device. Notes comes as an application for devices running Google Android.
