Bitwarden

“Bitwarden failed to properly update and I was left just with a broken shortcut and the new installer in the temp folder.”

“think I've observed something similar myself: sometimes when clicking the bitwarden extension button in chrome takes a bit to show the dialog (only when the vault is locked)”

“Does anyone feel bitwarden has become too slow lately on mobile as well as browser? I am using bitwarden for more than 5-6 years and lately I am noticing it has become very slow on Brave as well as on android.”

“Bitwarden can’t automatically pull passwords from other apps. You need to export them from your current password manager as a supported file, then upload that file through Bitwarden’s web vault under Tools → Import Data. Delete the export afterward since it contains all your passwords.”

“How to import all passwords to bitwarden?”

“Considering using Bitwarden & Entre Auth. Do you have any suggestions of how not to get locked out of either if changing and or lossing a phone.”

“The big thing to worry about is keeping your passwords and MFA together. That creates a single point of failure. If your vault is somehow hacked, MFA won't keep you safe.”

“Be aware that if your use Entre Auth (which is great) to create a passkey in Bitwarden and Bitwarden requires a 2fa token to open from Entre, you just locked yourself out if you lose your phone and have no means to recover using a recovery key. Be very careful!”

“If I switch from Authy to Bitwarden or Ente, all of my 2FA keys will sync?”

“For the last two weeks, more or less, when I try to use Bitwarden, the Firefox extension does not load. See the attached image:”

“Do a backup (one which is not! restricted to your existing account), create a new google (or anything else) email for Bitwarden only. Import the backup, creste an emergency sheet. Check everyhing.”

“Bitwarden has built in TOTP but I find that to be a vulnerability point. Use a completely separate Authentication App. Pick your poison but do not use the built in no matters how convenient it may seem.”

“2FA kinda loses it's usefulness when you have both your passwords and 2FA in rhe very same app. I use Bitwarden and Aegis.”

“Bitwarden Authenticator is a separate app from the password manager.”

“I can't login now because for some reason it looks like when I try to login they ask for confirmation with authenticator app which I don't have access because it's in my old broke phone, so I choose email verification the strange thing its the alleas email the code is send instead of the google mail that I changed too.”

“I've been using Bitwarden for password management for a long time now but I've always used Authy for 2FA and I'm thinking of switching to Bitwarden Authenticator.”

“Enabling Bitwarden’s update logs could help identify whether an update is failing or triggering removal.”

“Anyway, I really appreciate Bitwarden is still keeping it free to use nowadays.”

“Funny how 1 password has: Inconsistent Autofill: Frequent complaints on public forums cite persistent issues with browser extension inline prompts failing to trigger, failing to detect custom multi-step login forms, or aggressively cluttering non-password form fields.”

“Check Avast’s quarantine, Windows Event Viewer, and the Bitwarden installer logs around the time it disappears. Also verify whether another user or maintenance tool is uninstalling it.”

“In the past month, Bitwarden disappeared twice. When i logged into his PC remotely, I saw that Bitwarden had been uninstalled, but I was able to easily download and install the latest version for him.”

“Back to 1password”

“It'd also be really cool if Bitwarden supported native 2FA for free instead of keeping it behind the paid tier.”

“It doesn't take a computer security expert who chances upon a full, written password to think, "Hmmm, this might open the first or second most popular password manager on the planet." They might even know ahead of time that the person uses Bitwarden.”

“-Find someone you can absolutely trust (family member, best friend etc. Show him/her how to use Bitwarden and ask that they keep your master as a secure note in their vault AND you do the same for him/her.”
