“I use both and unless you just hate 1Password, I'd stick with it. I find it to generally just be more polished but it sounds like I may use more of the features than you.”

“bitwarden basic is free, try it and upgrade if you think it suits you. The multiple subdomain entries issue is with bitwarden as well.”
Cautious_Budget_3620 · reddit ·
“I used Bitwarden for a while before moving to Proton Pass. Have been very happy with Proton overall.”
reddit_sublevel_456 · reddit ·
“On the Secret Key: there's no exact equivalent in Bitwarden, and it's worth being upfront about that instead of glossing over it. In 1Password, your vault is encrypted with master password + Secret Key (34 chars, high entropy, never leaves your devices).”

“$20 vs I think the $60 I pay now is tempting. Especially for how I use it.”
Theunknown87 · reddit ·

“Bitwarden was far too clunky to use. I haven’t had a single issue with proton pass.”

“Both Proton Pass and Bitwarden function exactly the same on iOS.”
Sleaka_J · reddit ·
“Just shifted to Proton Pass from Bitwarden; not sure how long I will stay”
SinwarsStick · reddit ·
“iOS in-app save is the weak spot versus 1Password. Fill after a manual item is fine. Save-from-the-app is not.”
Natural_Product6384 · reddit ·
“Bitwarden is probably the best all-around choice in 2026. Proton Pass is worth checking out too if you prefer a cleaner, more minimal setup.”

“For something simple and free, Bitwarden is probably the easiest pick”

“Bitwarden is the only correct answer here”

“100% usable with the free version. The #1 reason I pay premium is because their free version is usually. I can afford to pay $20/year.”

“You can just enable biometric unlock on Bitwarden and keep everything in one place. Running two managers simultaneously breaks your workflow. Pick one.”

“So if own example.com, you can use DNS-01 to get a cert for bitwarden.example.com, which then you can use interally-only if you choose to. Because the cert is signed by a legitimate CA, all of your android apps will trust it and connect to it.”
jhspyhard · reddit ·
“But since I switched to Android i cant get Bitwarden to work with my self hosted server. I use a self signed CA certificate which I installed on my Android phone but I keep getting a message that the certificate of the server cant be verified.”

“For one-off shares to different people, **Send** is still the right Bitwarden tool. Organizations are for the same group over and over, not a single login to a new person.”

“> Right now, I manually copy the login, password, and URL to send them through Bitwarden’s text-sharing feature.”
BackgroundSky1594 · reddit ·
“I keep a copy of bitwarden portable, ente auth installer, backups of bitwarden and ente auth in proton drive with no 2fa. Just use a memorable passphrase.”
noreddituser1 · reddit ·
“Right now, I manually copy the login, password, and URL to send them through Bitwarden’s text-sharing feature. It would be much more convenient if there were a built-in tool for sharing passwords directly from my vault, similar to how I currently send text, without needing to copy and paste the details manually.”

“I can delete them from my Bitwarden vault, but assuming that vault has not been compromised, what difference does it make? Second question, is there any way to automate this without individually opening every single site and clicking on edit and then delete?”

“I've found Bitwarden super helpful for organizing mine.”

“Your vault is very securely encrypted. Even if someone broke into Bitwarden's cloud, they couldn't decrypt your vault without your master password (or your passkey, if you use that). What you need to protect is your Bitwarden account access, not the vault.”
JimTheEarthling · reddit ·
“Write down the login credentials for Ente Auth, Bitwarden and your main email on a piece of paper that you keep in a safe place. Problem solved.”

“well idk what to tell you then, it's known that multiple autofill services will fight each other, it doesn't matter if it's bitwarden, 1password, proton pass or whatever, it's a problem across the board at least when i tested it long time ago”

“Bitwarden has never let me down.”

“I don't often pay for subscriptions but this is so worth it.”
Roofless_ · reddit ·
“If you want/need cloud based for sharing amoung multple devices do Bitwarden or Proton Pass. If you want it to be completely offline for security sake and because you don't have other devices do KeepassXC or Enpass.”
