Firefox on iPad uses old Safari password file, not Firefox list.

Firefox syncs my passwords etc perfectly across four devices: laptop, desktop, phone and iPad. When I use the password menu item in Firefox it always shows consistently synced information. But Firefox on my iPad doesn't use this information whenever I try to login to a site. It reverts to a (very) old Safari password list from years ago. Firefox is the default browser on all of these devices. This behaviour seems to date from the end of Lockwise about 12 months ago. My iPad is a 5th generation model running iOS 15.6.1. How do I point Firefox at the right password file? Any suggestions please? Cheers Ian
