Hi.
How can I make visible my passwords? When I open the passwords manager I see the stored password details like site, login name and dots, but when I tap to eye icon for show the password, it disappear.

Opera beta 89.0.4683.83570
Xiaomi 14 Ultra, Android 14

Does this happen in the stable version? I see you use beta.

Yes. When I install the classic version and login, the passwords are invisible too

How it exactly disappears? Can you share a screenshot or screenrecording?

It's impossible to make screenshots in the password manager. When open it and select 1 of the password I see the site, login name and dots. When tap to eye icon to show password the dots disappear but password not show. The window with password is blank

@leocg
Yes, restart, reinstall Opera, Opera beta.
I have backup with Swift Backup but even though when I restore the Opera and data the passwords unable to show

@kerfo he meant, if you have this issue using browsers like Chrome, Vivaldi, or Edge.

No, only Opera. I have Google Chrome disabled, Firefox working fine with passwords. I haven't had a problem with Opera either, until now.
I change the Opera sync password before this issue, but I don't understand why don't show the passwords when restore the app with data via Swift backup

@kerfo Firefox is not based on Chromium.

Chromium encrypts your saved passwords using your Android login credentials, so for your passwords to be shown you need to provide your login password, PIN, fingerprint, etc.

@leocg Ok, but how can I solve my problem? The new stored passwords I can see but 300 others don't.
I did not change my PIN or fingerprint

@leocg Restored via Swift Backup or Opera servers are "invisible". New added manualy or from websites are accessible

@kerfo Did you try logging out from Sync and logging in again? Have you been asked to provide your old Opera account password?

@leocg I have tried to login several times. I have tried downloading passwords with both the old and new passwords. Passwords are always empty. I have changed my password several times, only once did it notify me of the need to reset the data on the server. But now I don't know if the passwords on the server are full or empty.

When Chromium encrypts passwords with the Android login credentials, I don't understand why I can't see them when I haven't changed the device password,PIN, fingerprint. Or I'm wrong?

@kerfo You can go to sync.opera.com to see if there are synced saved passwords.

@leocg Yes there. But no matter how I synchronized them with the device or devices they were always empty. I gave up, I found an old phone where I had at least some of the passwords. That's all, I won't write more because I would have to use dirty words.And all this because Opera is changing. Unfortunately, only for the worse.
