Apple has an official extension called iCloud Passwords. Well... it sucks. It keeps asking for a six-digit code and makes using browsers other than Safari difficult. So I built this for Chrome and Firefox: - Fill and save logins - Generate strong passwords - Hide My Email (needs iCloud+) - Stay paired for the browser session - Touch ID and contact email suggestions with the free Mac companion Free and open source. Needs macOS 14+ Not affiliated with Apple.

Could you build this?

Partial The browser extension UI and password generation are easy, but reliably reading and writing Apple's iCloud Keychain and Touch ID integration relies on Apple-internal or restricted interfaces.

What it would actually take: The stack is a Chrome/Firefox extension talking to a native macOS helper via native messaging, using LocalAuthentication for Touch ID. The hard part is integrating with iCloud Passwords and Hide My Email without official public APIs, which likely requires reverse-engineering Apple's behavior, the AutoFill credential provider model, and iCloud+ endpoints. It also needs careful security review, since this handles credentials.
