I'm not the lead developer (or involved with the project at all) and I also recommend it.

Only issues I have right now are:

- No app-fill on Android.

- No auto-fill (have to manually click the icon and select an account).

- When using Firefox the extension periodically logs out for no apparent reason.

- There's no address/wallet stuff so I actually have to pull out my credit cards.

Other than that it works pretty well.

- We released app-fill (autofill) on android last month. Make sure you are using version 1.3.0 or greater. Read more here: https://blog.bitwarden.com/android-v1-3-0-now-with-auto-fill...

- We also fixed the issue you are referring to on Firefox last week. Make sure you are using 1.10.1

- There are plans for additional "wallet" features in the future.

Woo! I just got app-fill working.

To be clear though, app-fill and auto-fill were referring to different things. What I meant by lack of "auto-fill" was that when I visit a website on desktop, my details aren't instantly filled when the page loads. I have to manually click the extension icon in my browser and select the account I want.

This is not always a bad thing. Sometimes you don't want software to automatically plunk your login credentials into appropriately named fields on a JavaScript driven web page

This is why we don't offer this feature. This feature is one of the major offenders for lastpass in the past. It's very easy to get wrong and expose vulnerabilities.

It _is_ a vulnerability!
