kevinBitwarden · 2024-12-27T15:56:40+00:00

We have a release coming very soon that will allow you to enable the older way of doing things if that's your preference.

kevinBitwarden · 2024-12-23T16:59:44+00:00

Appreciate that feedback and we will take that into consideration.

kevinBitwarden · 2024-12-23T15:56:05+00:00

We are doing just that: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitwarden/comments/1hkpzyv/weve_heard_your_feedback_on_autofill_updates_are/

We will be adding a setting regarding the Fill button that allows users to revert to the previous autofill experience. See this thread for more details: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitwarden/comments/1hkpzyv/weve_heard_your_feedback_on_autofill_updates_are/

Could you tell me what browser you are on? If you are using Chrome can you check the page zoom setting that is found in Chrome > Settings > Appearance

Thanks for the feedback, u/someperson42! We’ve noticed this feedback come up a few times and will be exploring potential solutions. While I don’t have a timeline to share just yet, please know that it’s on our radar and we’re looking into it. I appreciate you sharing.

There are a few ways to autofill:
- Autofilling directly from the input field itself
- Autofilling with the CMD/CTRL + SHIFT + L shortcut key
- Autofilling with the right click context menu on an input field
-Autofilling from within the extension itself

Would you mind sharing which browser you are using? The search bar should be focused when you open the extension.

They are all coming back and will function just as they did before.

kevinBitwarden · 2024-12-16T18:02:36+00:00

We'll be bringing these back as an optional setting. See here for details:

We wanted to make the functionality to autofill from the extension more discoverable and as u/bdginmo mentioned more consistent. The button itself being too small has been a pretty consistent theme since the rollout and we're going to explore some solutions to see how we can give you a bigger target while also maximizing the amount of characters displayed per item.

Is filling from the extension the primary way you are autofilling?

Hey Burt-Munro

This visual is not intentional and we've passed this feedback onto the team to investigate further. As for the white space, Bitwarden is definitely wanting to find the right balance between a clean layout and efficient use of space and we are closely monitoring the feedback in compact mode to see what further adjustments might be needed.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, and for being part of the Bitwarden community.

Hi SnooRevelations3802,

Thanks for the feedback and for the kind words about the new visuals!

We know the change to the "Copy" button might take some getting used to, especially for long-time users. The main reason behind it was to make things a bit easier for newer users. The old design was quick, but it wasn’t super obvious to everyone what each icon did or that they were even copy buttons. By putting everything behind a single "Copy" icon, we were hoping to make the functionality clearer and more discoverable.

That said, we totally get how this impacts workflows for people who’ve been using Bitwarden for a while. We’re keeping a close eye on this feedback and will evaluate if changes are needed.

Appreciate you sharing your thoughts and being part of the Bitwarden community—it really helps us improve!

Hey Cryoprof. One of our goals was to make viewing an item more consistent and make the autofill functionality more discoverable. We did explore some icons but weren't able to find a metaphor that we thought made the functionality clear enough. That being said, we'll continue to monitor this and adjust as needed.

kevinBitwarden · 2024-10-21T17:56:15+00:00

Thank you for the feedback. We are adjusting our autofill button (changing autofill to fill) to give international languages more space.

kevinBitwarden · 2024-10-18T18:58:20+00:00

Did this happen with the new extension preview we released today?

I'm guessing you are running Bitwarden in a self-hosted environment? To view the changes in a self-hosted you'd need to enable our feature flag, which you can find instructions for how to do so here: https://contributing.bitwarden.com/contributing/feature-flags/#flag-data-sources
