I love the autofill keyboard shortcut, a real productivity boost. To auto-fill login information, use the following default shortcuts. If there are multiple Login items with the detected URI, the last-used login will be used for the auto-fill operation. You can cycle through multiple Logins by repeatedly using the keyboard shortcut: On Windows: Ctrl + Shift + L On macOS: Cmd + Shift + L On Linux: Ctrl + Shift + L

I’ve been trying to switch from KeePass to Bitwarden so that my partner and I can share some passwords but KeePass just works, so it’s been hard to change over.
If I may ask, how do you share passwords when using KeePass?
Most people do not add passwords often, so that works just fine.
You also can have multiple database file, one for the common shared password which is always read only synced from a single source. And one for local passwords which are not yet, or should not, go into the shared database.
> The most trusted open source password manager for business I expected a blog article with actual feedbacks from companies and data, but ended up on bitwarden.com main page. Baseless claims can be quite common when it comes to marketing, but I'm genuinely curious: which password manager is used in your workplace, if any? I've personally never seen in my (for now short) career anything else than Keepass.
I like them both - 1password has better UX but I prefer supporting open source for personal use.

I wish google would provide a basic password manager as part of their workspace. It's 2022 and passwords are more painful than ever. In an ideal world we would have SSO everywhere, but it's just not happening.

I've found the multi device syncing easier and the integration with iOS works very well.
This was my reason to go away from KeePass(XC) with NextCloud for sync. I would inevitably run into a sync issues (also due to the need for NextCloud to be always up of course, also self-hosted) and I never found a nice way to integrate KeePassXC into android or iOS, Bitwarden just works, on any OS (allthough what I find annoying is that you have to sync the vault before you get new stuff by going into the app and sy…
I had that problem on iOS, and it disappeared since I moved to Android. There is probably an issue in what they are (not) allowed to do in background on iOS.
Love Bitwarden, I personally onboarded dozen … but they must heavily invest in UI/UX and fix their apps (+ extensions) It’s not easy and intuitive for non-techies.

I just switched to it from LastPass which, well, has even worse UX in my opinion. It's an extremely low bar to clear and I agree Bitwarden is quirky too, but for me it's still firmly been an upgrade. The only thing I miss is an "add to bitwarden?" dialog when I sign up somewhere. Their docs say it exists but I've never managed to get it to appear :-)
It's not that hard even; we did that for our login form. Works great with Bitwarden. And on mobile too. But you have to know how to name things so that password managers can do their magic.
Frequent mistakes caused by essentially ignorance on this front:
- Splitting the email and password form across two screens. That somehow became fashionable. There are ways to do this and not break password managers. But why do this at all? Having to click the fill button twice is ugly and should be flagged as a bug if you ever see that. There's no need for that regardless of the UX.
- Having a login form but then not using field names like "email" and "password" that a password manager would recognize as such. There are a few more things you need to think about: https://hiddedevries.nl/en/blog/2018-01-13-making-password-m.... Just do it right.
- Not having password managers on the radar as a thing that the UX MUST support (not optional). Non technical people like designers and product owners tend to be a bit sloppy with their own security and they won't necessarily even be aware this is a thing that they need to worry about. So, they don't notice when it doesn't work. They probably don't even use a password manager themselves. And they certainly won't test it.
- Developers not caring enough to do anything about this unprompted; by e.g. just raising the topic with their PMs or just implementing things correctly to begin with. I've actually brought up this topic and usually this is not controversial at all and simple to resolve.

Is there a simple way to make this transition from LastPass to BW?
