I dunno, I use Bitwarden and Firefox on Android so pretty none mainstream and don’t have any of the issues this clown does. Seems like a click bait article for the sake of it.
My banking apps lock screens consistently aren’t recognized by Bitwarden Android.
Some websites/apps only show the email field at first, then add the password field afterwards. This also sometimes makes it not being detected as a login form.
Sometimes a password field is detected only on the first filling in (which is annoying when choosing the wrong entry).
On desktop it’s great, but I really don’t know why some apps have to do custom login screens.
That’s because Bitwarden used various methods to enable auto-fill in places where the native auto-fill capability of Android doesn’t work. See https://bitwarden.com/help/auto-fill-android/ for an explanation.
Same setup, and its largely fine, but about 5-10% of the time bitwarden/keyboard will fail to show the password auto complete buttons, and I’ll have to copy paste manually, or restart Firefox. Really annoying, albeit rare.
Agreed… depending on Google to implement or fix very specific features is just shouting into the void. Use a trusted 3rd party app like Bitwarden, as you mentioned
+1 from me as well. I almost never have issues with Bitwarden. And when I do its usually in apps that don’t allow autofill in a normalish way. So I’m not sure thays really Google’s or Bitwarden’s fault, but the app developers…
Yeah, I had this sort of experience back with LastPass, but Bitwarden works beautifully for me.
There’s a potentially valid criticism if that occurs because iOS’s mechanism is robust to poorly implemented password managers and Android’s isn’t, but that’s also not the criticism being provided here.

Bitwarden works well in every app and browser I’ve tried.
