Bitwarden Password Manager by Bitwarden Inc.

by Firefox user 14316038, 3 years agoThis extension is pretty good, but needs specific improvements in order to be worthy of 5 Stars. First of all, it does not coordinate with the MS Store Bitwarden App. This seems very strange. For example, I just changed the password for my VPN online at the VPN's website. I did this on my iPhone using the iCloud PW manager functions to generate the new password. I then copied and pasted the new password into the iPhone Bitwarden app. Shortly afterwards, maybe an hour later, I was using my Windows laptop and the Firefox browser and attempted to login to my VPN. When the extension autofilled the password, it was the old password. I thought, Okay, it must not have synced password databases yet. I started the store app and tried autofilling from there, and sure enough, it had the old password, too. So I forced a sync, and it now had the new password. However, when I returned to the Firefox extension and tried to autofill, it again filled the old password! What? So I had to force a sync with the extension before it actually contained the new password! This is nothing but stupid.
Additionally, why do I have to keep logging into the extension with biometrics when I've already logged into the app using biometrics. Or indeed, when I've already logged into Windows using biometrics? This also is a stupid duplication of effort and waste of precious time.
Come on, people. I know you can do better than this.
***** Update 6/5/2023: My earlier comments are still applicable. Now, though, the extension has started logging me out of my account. This is new behavior that did not happen before. When it logs me out, I am only logged out on the extension. I remain logged into my account on the MS Store app. But in order to log back in on the extension, I have to pull up the store app, unlock the vault with biometrics, lookup my master password, copy it to the clipboard, and then use it to log back in to the extension.
It's still a pretty good security app. But although they keep making little tweaks to it, they still haven't fixed the major issues I've reported here.

Love the Premium tier as well, subscribed till hell freezes over! Considering Family tier upgrade in the near future.
A small suggestion: If the toolbar icon could be configured to open the side panel instead of a drop down/pop-up would be nice. - Rated 5 out of 5by Yurii, 2 days ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by KonietzkyStrain, 2 days agoIf you are using Firefox or any browser, this is a MUST-HAVE for Secure Password Vault. Been using this for over five years now with no issues.

- Rated 2 out of 5by loupdidou, 5 days agoHave been using Bitwarden for a week, and every second site the input form is not correctly recognized. Just today on a site I had bitwarden suggest a generated password, to simply not remember it during test-login. The firefox extension doesn't make my life easier unfortunately.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Lance, 6 days agoI like this add-on come in extension in mobile. it give quick access everytime i need to use it on firefox mobile without the need to open installed app.
But i have a problem for this extension, i dont know if this happen only to me or its happen to other people too. When i open it and its in fullscreen, i cant close it and goes back to webpage before locking the account first.
adding a button to close the extension without locking the account will be nice. But i think, manually locking the account is also good for security reason. - Rated 5 out of 5by AZ, 6 days ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18719438, 8 days agoBitwarden is great and free, however if devs could look into the constant generation happening in background, we don't need to have a generated password every 5sec while we don't use the app, make no sense and extra calculation for nothing, also harder to find older generated one we remove from the clipboard

- Rated 1 out of 5by roijaune, 8 days agoI love bitwarden, I've been using it for a long time on my mobile. But this extension makes logging in rather chaotic: a bar that appears inopportunely makes us retype our login several times, and the fact that we have to identify ourselves in the extension each time we log in is really annoying... I uninstall it straight away!
