Top 10 Password Manager Extensions for Chrome in 2025

User reviews

Users appreciate Bitwarden's security, cross-device syncing, and feature-rich nature compared to other password managers. However, recent updates introduced several frustrations, including bugs after a redesign affecting basic interactions, inability to move folders easily, autofill delays, Firefox-specific issues, and diminished user experience due to cursor focus not defaulting to the search field. Multiple reviews express disappointment over these regressions, requesting fixes and restoration of previously smooth functionality.

Pros

Reliable, secure, and easy to use for managing passwords across devices.
Full featured compared to other password managers.
Effective at storing and sharing passwords and sensitive info securely.
Offers keyboard shortcut and icon access for quick vault interaction.

Cons

Recent redesign caused basic functionality issues like typing, clicking, viewing, and editing problems.
Cannot easily move folders within the vault as before, both on extension and web version.
Autofill can be slow and the extension sometimes times out despite settings.
Extension has poor integration in Firefox compared to Chrome, e.g., save password prompt not working.
Cursor does not automatically focus on search box on opening the extension, requiring extra clicks.
