Rated 5 out of 5

It's easy to generate essentially impossible to brute force (with current technology) random passwords or pass-phrases that you don't need to remember and therefore can't be coerced from you - as long as you don't give up your master password. Out of hundreds of passwords for individual websites, I know exactly zero of them off the top of my head.
Syncs seamlessly between the desktop, browser extensions, and mobile apps. I strongly encourage using a strong password or easy to remember strong pass-phrase, and absolutely no sort of bio-metric unlocking at all. It's less convenient, but it's generally illegal (under most circumstances in the US) to be forced to reveal you master password, versus your device being put in front of your face or a fingerprint being lifted and used.
It's also open source software so anyone can view the code and ensure there's no shenanigans going on. Not as flashy as the other options out there, but once you get the gist of it, it's fantastic.

- Rated 5 out of 5by NickCool, 10 hours agoIf you host Vaultwarden yourself and Bitwarden version 2026.7.0 broke your sync with Vault, you need to update Vaultwarden to at least version 1.36.0, preferably the latest.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Ender, 20 hours agothe experience that I have with this extension recently are miserably. On Zen it stuck at loading the vault after logged-in, on Brave it stuck at log in screen.

After updating the Bitwarden Firefox extension to version 2026.7.0, the vault remains stuck on the loading placeholders and no items are displayed.
Going back to 2026.6.1 fixes it. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13539882, 2 days agoTo those come here for a broken update: I updated vaultwarden to 1.37.0 and resynced it's working now.
- Rated 1 out of 5by potato, 2 days agoGo back to 2026.6.1 to get it working with self-hosted again. They broke it for firefox in 2026.7.0. The previous versions are here on the mozilla addons page under Version History > "See all versions" for Bitwarden. I'm not allowed to paste the url.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 20055573, 3 days agoThe extension not working on the newest version is not a problem with bitwarden itself but with the selfhosted vault.
So nothing to complain, great extension and so grateful that selfhosted is supported. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 19922097, 3 days ago2026.7.0 не работает со старым Vaultwarden. Обновил Vaultwarden до актуальной версии, работает.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Derp, 3 days agoYou broke it. Newest version get stuck loading the vault and is blank. Can't use it now. Self-hosted. Desktop app and web interface work fine, so I know it's this plugin.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 20055976, 3 days agoТекущая версия 2026.7.0 сломана. Расширение не подгружает пароли

- Rated 2 out of 5by pandazorus, 6 days agoThe good:
- does what it says
- cross-platform sync works well most of the time
- free tier more than enough for most use cases
- open source + self-hosting options
The bad:
- the UX is bad and inconsistent, and hasn't improved for years. you get sort of used to it
- serious performance issues with some "dynamic" pages (home assistant in my case)
- was recently bought out by a private equity firm - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18996315, 6 days agoWorks most of the times. But then once in a while it just doesnt save / sync or whatever. Signing in from new PC and some passwords have suddenly vanished. They are on mobile. Updating password on mobile still doesnt update on PC. Relogging doesnt work...
Logging out, reinstalling and logging in, fixed it temporarily. In the middle of a session, the plugin removed itself. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 20047461, 8 days agoThe idea behind bitwarden is good, but their understanding of user experience is horrible. They don't listen to community and they spend time and money to worsen their product. It's fcked beond repair.
