why is it so expensive

You can find the free version in the web or in the reviews bellow, or, if you are somewhat good at coding, you can just reverse engineer it, since extensions are basically just JavaScripts

The developer got greedy...

doesn't work after new version

Unfortunately it doesn't work in the new version.

Seitdem das mit Bezahlung geworden ist, nur schrott. Man hat am Anfang nur 10 mal möglichkeiten was zu tun, was am nächsten Tag wieder möglich soll, was bei mir nicht der Fall ist, danach muss man zahlen. Und auch noch richtig teuer.

This is what you get for 10 free autofills

Wucher, viel zu teuer. Ein einmaliger Kauf hätte total ausgereicht

Used this extension for awhile but now the main dev is charging 5-10 per month for unlimited usage. What a joke! Use something else!

Depois da última atualização, virou uma grande m. inútil que não funciona mais. Thank you for the older working version, user 18301629! Tohodo, I will never pay you a dime.

Convenient extension but $4.99 per month is a steal. Disabling the extension without notice with the only option for a monthly subscription is dishonest.
As already recommended by other users, download the free version web.archive.org/web/20240524062951/https://04.yfhome.xyz/firefox/downloads/file/4233940/autofill_quantum-11.9.0.xpi and disable automatic updating.

When the developer returns to the real world I am also willing to spend a few $ to contribute to the development.

The free version of the addon from February 2024 can be found for download on archive.org:

(Make sure to turn off auto-updates for the addon)

Freemium should be done by adding additional features and charging for those (if it is done at all), not by restricting already present features.

Also take note that the developer went out of their way to remove downloads for historical versions of the plugin from the extension's page. Versions that would have performed these functions for free.

The price is ridiculous. Come to your senses.

I made a mozilla account just to rate this 1 star because LMFAO 5$ A MONTH AHAHAHA. Creator is literally a joke LMFAO. Literally an app that doesn't have to take any resources, cost 0$ after creation, and he wants 5$ a month. Dude needs a reality check.

Sudden Freemium upgrade makes the previously free and very useful addon, unusable for most without paying.

Awful.

changed to a freemium model, but with such a restrictive free tier to make it useless. Taking a useful free extension and making it a subscription is not what was advertised. Otherwise it used to be helpful in many circumstances, but not all. Will look for a free alternative.

Bait and switch strategy by suddenly adding a paywall is not appreciated.
Instant uninstall for me.

Developer got greedy - instant uninstall, luckilly there are free alternatives that work just good.

Too expensive, I can pay once, not each month.
