amazing extension and amazing service. big thanks to the bitwarden team!

Update: The UX issue I have can be reverse with an existing setting. The performance issues seem improved as well.

### Original review below ###

From downloading it 2020 to November 2024 this has been a 5 star addon for me, but they've recently updated it and it is slower and buggy now.

This update also change the UI functionality. It use to work like this:

Clicking the entry auto-filled and there was a smaller button to the side to open details to edit.

Now its reversed. Auto fill, the most important function, is now a small button. Now its a small button to the side. I don't need to check the details every day, I need to auto fill.

The UI itself looks nice, but not nice enough to justify the performance hit, and the functionality changes are just bad user experience choice.

We appreciate this tool a lot as it facilitates our everyday life on the Internet. Until now it was very convenient to have it always open on the screen as a sidebar. As the new look now is much broader at the sidebar this is not possible anymore. That's a pity, but still Bitwarden will stay our favorite among the password managers.

Update 01/21/2025:
Changing from 1-star to 5-star. Bitwarden has listened to its community and implemented the usability improvement which restored the ease of use to a level that is equivalent the original version. However, several settings have to be changed for this to happen. This is not an issue for me, but might be for some other users who don't read reviews, forum posts or update notes.

Original 12/30/2024 review:
It was perfect until the UI update circa Dec 2024 that completely destroyed the ease of use. I can't get to my credit cards / identities on first click. They are now hidden under a drop down menu. Also, the "fill" button becomes so small it becomes a precision job. Please, don't "fix" what's not broken.

The best

I use Bitwarden across all platforms. It's the best password manager I have used.

Thanks a lot!
It became much better with the options "Click items to autofill on Vault view" and "Show quick copy actions on Vault".

I rerate back to 5 stars. Bitwarden is the best password manager.
