- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 18758772, 2 months agoWas 5 stars before UI update in December of 2024. The new one makes accessing identity and credit card fills much harder. There were no issues with the old UI. Please revert back to it.

- Rated 3 out of 5by DS, 2 months agoNew version lost features I used. No longer has solarized theme and favorites are sorted by use and not able to change sort. Password management is still 5 stars but new version's user experience is losing 2 stars. This maybe not be an issue for all but found it to be an issue for me.

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.Developer response
posted a month agoHi. Mare sure you are on version 2024.12.4 or above, then check under Bitwarden Settings > Autofill > "Click items to autofill on Vault view" and Bitwarden Settings > Appearance > "Show quick copy actions on Vault" if you want to restore previous functionality that you may prefer. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18530104, 2 months ago
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 18756518, 2 months ago5 stars until the new UI update. Please revert to clicking the entire item for auto-filling. Needing to press a tiny "fill" button is a poor user experience.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Samuel Araújo, 2 months agoWas decent before last update, it becomes less intuitive, more complicated do autofill, sometimes i have to go back to the password list to have a fill form button, and some even need to click the tree dots (options) to look for the fill option, definetly a very bad update in therms of usability, this is suposed to autofill our passwords, and thats the reason we install this, somehow they seem o left aside the very essence of this add-on

- Rated 1 out of 5by Andreas, 2 months agoFor personal use this is okay, not as good as lastpass, but okay. For enterprise usage, hardly usable. Enter master password, then enter a code that arrives by mail, but when window lose focus it disapears.
It's possible to work around, but the neglection by the developers make me fear for the security of the entire product. - Rated 1 out of 5by Pedro, 2 months agoWhat is this new UI? It is such a mess to get things done, nothing is intuitive, it feels half baked.... Are you trying to copy someone else? Did we really needed all those rounded borders?
- Rated 1 out of 5by Josh, 2 months agoI was a happy paying customer, even though I used the opensource version. Why the hell did you break the UI after many years of it being one way, for the sake of change? Trying to find a release I can rollback to.

- Rated 1 out of 5by noxypaws, 2 months agoLatest update has made the UI worse in every conceivable way. More clicking required, less information displayed, slower, and just destroys whatever muscle memory you may have had prior to this update.

It's the best password manager I have used.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Alex, 2 months agoThe latest UI changes are a serious step backwards, and seem to be in the category of "Change for the sake of change". Logically, the number one thing a user does when opening the extension is auto-fill a login - so why is that function relegated to a tiny button and clicking anywhere else opens the saved information, without even a further button to autofill from that point? It's very counterproductive and frustrating.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Anonymous User, 2 months agoWhile I consider Bitwarden one of the best password managers available, latest update (the one introducing new UI) - deserves negative review. Not because the extension is broken or new UI is ugly (it looks really nice), but because you've changed behavior of extension. Providing users with additional settings to go back to previous behavior (or promise to introduce such settings in future updates) is not the way how you should do it. Some users (like relatives and loved ones who were introduced to password managers by more tech-aware people) of extension got confused/lost by your changes - and it's difficult to explain over the phone what should they change to keep using Bitwarden "as usual". That's why new extension behavior should be opt-in for existing Bitwarden users.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18754789, 2 months agoThe interface update was a mistake. Please put the "copy username" and "copy password" buttons back the way they were. You guys added clicks instead of removing them. This is interface 101: reduce clicks.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Jon-Pierre Gentil, 2 months agoThe new UI is unfathomably bad.
It feels like the people who designed it do not actually use the product. I think a big assumption would be made that the drop-down menu isn't used much and that everyone uses the auto-fill widget embedded in the website itself. The problem is that rarely works, and I have it disabled. I don't want it. So they've changed the default behavior in the drop-down menu to "view" the item instead of "fill", and created this TINY MINISCULE "fill" button you have to click instead, with no option to revert to the previous behavior.
Fire your UX people; they're inept.
The rest of Bitwarden is a great product. But this UI change is a dumpsterfire.
