Amazing app, and with a selfhosted service like vaultwarden you can manage your own passwords. I have used dashlane and 1password (both are great), but being opensource makes bitwarden the better choice in my honest opinion.

1 step forward 2 steps back. Each realease makes annoying ui changes that make it less user friendly. Latest version, ctrl+y to (in firefox) doesn't give focus to the search vault. It may sound trivial, but when I use this password manager in very delicate environments, using the mouse to search is a pain in th a$$

Doesn't work with biometrics on either Windows desktop or android. Constantly logs you out even after adjusting settings, and doesn't connect to desktop app properly.

Great appearance update. Only needs a quick edit option.

best extension

the best password manager ever

Best cross-platform password manager. Works great on every device I have. And it's even free!

Hard to save my newly generated password (using the context menu) as the extension keeps clearing my clipboard. And guess what, then i need to go back to generator history and each time it generated new entry to history so you end up confuse which one is the one you picked earlier.

Switching to Proton Pass to boycott the USA. That being said Bitwarden has served me well for the past 3/4 years and has saved me in many instances.

Bitwarden is wonderful and saves me so many headaches and gets five stars! - this review is for the browser addon only!
For some reason, they had to update the design... Fine, I liked the old one better but anyways...
But now, instead of just clicking on the entire tile, you have to click on "Fill" and to copy only eg. the password now requires two steps. This may sound nitpicky but if it's all the interaction you ever have with this plugin and that just got a lot more tedious it's not a good thing. I'd love to be able to revert here :/

EDIT June 2026: In the settings, use "compact mode" and "show quick copy actions". This immediately adresses this issue. Dark mode also works. I don't know if at the time I overlooked these or if these features got added later but I like them. Now, the UI is more or less as before but more rounded - and that's more an asthetic choice than an impact on usability.

4 stars as in 80% of time when I type master password I have to do it twice and it takes time to login.
