2. Is there any plan to upgrade Autofill in Mountain Lion ?


Thanks

Hello,


1. You can't see the passwords in Safari, only the username. The passwords are stored in Keychain access (in your Utilities folder) and to see that password you need to type the password from your session. They are encrypted but it's not the perfect security !

2. We don't know all the features available in Mountain Lion yet. 😉

Don't worry about it... you didn't know 🙂

Much better to use the native Keychain Access password manager then a third party unsupported Apple product.
