- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13195976, 5 years agoIt used to work fine, but in the last week now it just says "An error has occurred. There is a problem with the plugin. To proceed, click the Refresh Plugin button below to clear the plugin cache." I do this and it takes me to the Okta sign in page. I sign in and the browser extension just says the same thing.
The Chrome version of the extension is working fine.Developer response

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14922880, 5 years agoTotally uneccessary, flaky, crashes, and has none of the features in other password managers.
I'm stuck with it because of work, but I'd avoid it like the plague if I could.
Edit in response to the developer response - I think that's part of the problem, I shouldn't need a browser add-on.Developer response

- Rated 2 out of 5by mmatsap, 5 years agoNew version requires "Read and modify privacy settings". Hi Okta, I know you mean well but please lets take a moment and put yourself in users` shoes:
There is this app that you sometimes use to make things a bit more convenient. It's not the only way to get things done but it's one of the fastest ones. Now that app needs to gain control about YOUR privacy settings. The privacy controls that is the last tiny bit you can still control on the internet. And this app want's to have the ability to modify things behind the curtains. I'm gonna go with a "Hefty no to that." Even at the cost of uninstalling it..
Edit:
Thank you for your explanation. I do appreciate when developers follow up. Unfortunately (for me), I am not willing to provide that permission. If anything, the internet thought me that privacy cannot be based on honor system.Developer response
posted 5 years agoStarting in version 5.38.0, you were prompted by Firefox to allow the Okta Browser Plugin to Read and Modify Privacy Settings. We requested this permission because we are launching a new optional feature called “Disable browser password prompts” that prevents your browser from asking for your passwords for apps saved in Okta. Okta will not modify any of your Privacy Settings unless you choose to enable this feature.
Okta cares deeply about your Privacy. We will release a new version soon that will improve this experience. If you have any further questions on this, or any concerns, please email us at pluginsupport@okta.com and we'll gladly help. Thanks! Okta Customer Support - Rated 2 out of 5by mail43, 5 years agoIt was not comfortable to require it to be installed in the first place, but I could live with it.
What has become a show-stopper is that latest versions require it to be given "Read and modify privacy settings".
That is a permission I am not willing to give to any extension.Developer response
