I’m transitioning to Bitwarden having been using a hodgepodge of Firefox and Google password management. I’m gradually trying to de-google anyway and I’ve got a bit frustrated with the Firefox Android password manager (fine on desktop, often doesn’t offer to generate passwords on mobile).

Do people have any tips for how to get the most out of Bitwarden on Android? I’ve done these things:

  • Switched the main Auto-fill setting over (and enabled auto-fill in Bitwarden)
  • Disabled Firefox’s password management
  • Turned off “Offer to save passwords” and “auto sign-in” in Google Password Manager
  • Turned off Privacy->Use auto-fill with Google

Is there anything else I should do? Is there a Bitwarden equivalent to everything you could do with the Google services? E.g. some apps said “Google Smart Lock” and they don’t appear to do anything now.

    Enabling the accessibility mode does help ensure Bitwarden pops up. I wish the built in Autofill were more robust like on iOS though.

      Yeah that would be spectacular. My work phone is iOS and I don’t think I’ve ever had it not work on that 😂 still greatly prefer my Pixel 7 Pro though.
