How good is for iOS/OSX? I use enpass and if I don't open it all the time (and retype the master pwd!) then it not catch most logins and now I have a lot of that into the Apple system instead.

I wonder which one is truly transparent (I work mostly on Mac/iOS but still need other platforms)




I’ve been using Bitwarden for 2 years now, and I feel like completion has continuously improved. It uses the built-in auto fill feature on iOS and it works pretty well. Whenever I see a login form, I see the auto fill toolbar appear. I click on it, unlock Bitwarden with FaceID and it auto fills fine.

I had quite a few apps in the beginning where I needed to manually open BW to copy paste my username/password, but it doesn’t seem like it occurs to me anymore.


I use BitWarden on iOS and it is pretty much same as the default iOS auto fill (which is iCloud?). It uses the system auto fill service and the detecting of password fields to show the auto fill option and filling the password is done by that service, not BitWarden. You can actually use two active auto fill services (say BitWarden and iCloud, I did when I was testing the waters), you will get a prompt to choose which one you want to use.
