What Real Users Say About Bitwarden

Authentic feedback and real-world ratings from Mac & iOS users

Autofill functions don’t work

"Entering a credit card on most websites with Bitwarden requires manual copy/paste operations for each field. There is an autofill function that you access by dropdown menu, but it doesn’t work."

Love it! Add more! Think of new types 😇

"This is one of the coolest app to use, just looking forward to get dedicated type for PGP keys! Furthermore, I would be incredibly super if you added support for encryption emails on Mac and iOS :)"

You lost this long time customer

"I’ve been paying for Bitwarden since the beginning. I was a former Keypass (open source) user. But Bitwarden, under new management (look up the Fast Company article), has been quietly destroying their own product. They also doubled the price. I’m switching to Proton (which can import from Bitwarden) and will no longer be paying for Bitwarden. New releases have had fatal bugs, especially on the Mac App, that took way too long to fix. And Bitwarden keeps changing the user interface for the worse. It’s really frustrating. I see no benefit to all the changes that only make the product inconsistent and harder to use. And all the canned replies here of “we need more information” are indicative of a company with self serving priorities likely moving towards further leveraging their users for more profit. All the changes for the worse also bring into question the overall security of Bitwarden. Will they be hacked as happened more than once with LastPass and other password managers? I no longer have faith in Bitwarden which sadly seems focused on going the private equity route that has destroyed so many other other once great companies."

Not up to speed

"Please one version has update option in the help drop down and another version doesn’t. Please make updates equal and updated between all the various versions no matter which app it is. Point .1 of an app update could be important but not updated could be disastrous."
