User reviews

This recent update which added the "FILL" button and greatly slowed down the app and making it difficult to use is terrible. I shouldn't have to wait 5+ seconds for it to fill the password box, it always used to be instantaneous. Also, the stupid popup about having reliable email needs to go. Just roll this app back 6 months and quit messing with what was a good thing.

I agree with other recent reviewers—the 2025.2.1 update has worsened what was once a reliable and user-friendly password manager. In addition, every time there is a Chrome browser update, the Bitwarden Chrome extension stops working and displays a blank rectangle. I then have to uninstall and reinstall it. I have done this at least five times, if not more, in the past 10 months.

Unfortunately, I have to agree with other recent reviewers, this 2025.2.1 update has degraded what was a reliable, easy to use password manager. Auto fill is gone, the display has changed on its own and I am in the hunt for a reliable alternative. I do wonder if the windows version is better, I am away for an extended time and cannot access my windows machine
