Automatically updating entries with app or URL information if they didn’t match and you had to manually search for them. You have to copy the URL, leave the browser, open the app, search for the entry again, and manually add the URL in the current version.
Better defaults in the app like which group you log in to or which collection new entries are added to. Keeping all your entries added to a shared collection is a constant chore right now.
Better keyboard functionality. It’s basically impossible to navigate with a keyboard on PC right now. Keepass has a global auto type hotkey which made it so you hardly even had to open the app.
Looks like everything is essentially in the same spot UI wise, but with a native application that hopefully gets moving a lot faster.
I’ve noticed that currently on Bitwarden, for auto fill it takes 6-7 seconds just to get authenticated with fingerprint and fill in the username and password field. That should hopefully be down to like 2 or 3 seconds.
Weren’t they planning to change it from Microsoft’s Android UI, it’s just taking a while, as they have to rebuilt it from scratch? I thought I saw something about that.
Bitwarden is excellent but i have a few nitpicks on Android.
I wish I could change the “Username” field to “Email address” because it kind of annoys me having email addresses under usernames. I’d also like to add things to favourites or folders without having to go into edit mode on every entry individually. Same with adding notes. The app has trouble following the system theme and doesn’t always autofill reliably for me, meaning I sometimes have to go into the app and copy/paste my passwords manually.
Other than that, the UI is just a bit ugly compared to some other password managers,
Try Keyguard, it is open source and much nicer than the regular Bitwarden app. Do not use the version from the Play Store though, get it directly from Github.
When it launched the apps were more modern than bitwarden. If bitwarden hasn’t improved since, then it’s still the same
Bitwarden’s interface hasn’t changed a bit and it’s a pity
There is nothing wrong with it. Why people always want things to be changing? What really important feature are you missing?
A few for me:
And what better person to answer that question than Mr. Bitwarden himself:

What do you feel it’s missing? It’s a tad slower than I’d like but otherwise works quite well.

Correct, they announced it two months ago: https://www.androidpolice.com/bitwarden-app-about-prettier/

Huh, this is the first time I heard about this, thanks for sharing!
Why? I use Vaultwarden with Bitwarden from the Playstore is there anything wrong with it?
The version on the Play Store requires a “premium” subscription for some features but the Github release gets those for free.
It’s not open source. Only source available unfortunately.
a new client is on the way btw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rVQOESKbbA

I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Do you know if there’s a new interface coming for android as well?
Thanks for sharing, thats exciting!
The new client will use Material You.
Thats dope! I’ll be looking forward to it, thanks for sharing your knowledge of what’s going on ☺️
