1. [R5] Bitwarden Password Manager 5/5 · US Essential!: Bitwarden has been an essential tool for organizing and protecting my personal information. Bitwarden is available on iOS, Android, and Windows, making it one of the most accessible password managers on the market.
2. [R20] Bitwarden Password Manager 5/5 · US Best balance of trust, value, and usability: Bitwarden is the best password manager. It does the important things right: stores everything in one place, works across devices, supports autofill and passkeys on iPhone, and doesn’t feel like it’s constantly pushing me into an expensive ecosystem. I also like that it’s open source, which makes it feel more trustworthy than a lot of polished-but-closed
3. [R38] Bitwarden Password Manager 5/5 · US Outstanding App: I can’t rave about the Bitwarden app enough. I have almost 300 passwords we manage between my wife and I. The app easily makes it simple for us to receive account information in one place that’s accessible from our iDevices and windows laptops. I just paid for the Premium features not because I needed the additional features but because I simply want to support the company. I can’
4. [R63] Password Manager 3/5 · US Always spams an ad to subscribe. annoying.: There should not be constant ads in paid apps, including ads for the publisher's other offerings. 👎
5. [R11] Bitwarden Password Manager 5/5 · US Best password manager ever: I’ve tried em all and Bitwarden has never failed me. I’ve used it for years after my last password manager had a huge data breach. Bitwarden has never given me any trouble nor have they tried to hold my passwords hostage by asking for a monthly subscription. Absolutely best in its class, the definition of reliable.
6. [R35] Bitwarden Password Manager 5/5 · US Great password vault: Easy to use and fast to understand, best choice to get if you’re looking for a password manager.
7. [R61] Password Manager 1/5 · US Disappointed: Bought a few years ago as a one time payment when downloaded because I didn’t want to deal with apps using subscriptions pricing. Now the old app has stopped working and we are forced to pay a monthly service charge. Very disappointing. I have 250 entry I will have to manually offload/print and input elsewhere
8. [R67] Password Manager 1/5 · US DO NOT GET: The system of securing PWs is fine. The problem is they have built in a constant nagging banner trying to upsell premium that pops up every-time you open the app. Everyone complains about it and they emphatically say that they wont remove it. Its best to get Apple or any other one that wont keep trying to force you to give then more money, because its likely they will never stop.
9. [R73] Password Manager 1/5 · US The app erased all my info from 10+ years: I used this free app for 10+ years, trusted all my log in and bank accounts information here. Didn’t open it too often but it was a lifesaver… until it wasn’t. One day I opened the app and it was empty. Don’t waste your money on this app. Just do a blocked note on your phone that is free and it will actually last forever
10. [R76] Password Manager 1/5 · US No Way To Recover!: Keep a hardcopy of every password you put in here and the password to enter the app because there’s no way to recover any of it! Which means there’s really no point in paying for this! No point in the backup either because it all gets destroyed if you need to reset your password. Kept the acct key email for nothing.
11. [R2] Bitwarden Password Manager 5/5 · US Best password manager by far: It’s way better than any password manager out there that has a trail, would recommend
12. [R52] Bitwarden Password Manager 5/5 · US Best password management app: No subscriptions just peace and safety. This app is also protected by AES-256 which is impossible to break through
13. [R27] Bitwarden Password Manager 3/5 · US Needs improvement: App doesn’t contain all of the passwords that I have in my vault. Some are just missing. And you can’t get chat support. You have to email for customer support. These two things makes me not recommend the app.
14. [R34] Bitwarden Password Manager 1/5 · US Been broken for a while: Extension constantly goes offline and doesn’t save to cloud so I drive myself crazy having to find the right password. Support isn’t helping. Pretty sure the open-source software this is based off changed something and didn’t get fixed for production. Anyways, moving on.
15. [R66] Password Manager 3/5 · US Customer Service is Lacking: It was time to upgrade my iPhone. For the past few years, I’ve always used Face ID to open the app. I’ve switched computers and made the mistake of not keeping the password into the app… my bad. My problem was loading the app to the new phone as Face ID wouldn’t work. I tried numerous times to email for help. They did respond but the answers never seemed to match my q
16. [R70] Password Manager 1/5 · US Great but Not: Great secure app. I had over 200 passwords, notes and financial entries then I forgot my password. Reached out customer service and guess what? They cannot reset your password. So if you buy this make sure to write down your password in several different places.
17. [R94] Password Manager 1/5 · US Bait & Switch Developer: Paid $20 for the lifetime premium subscription when this app first came out. All features were free and unlocked with the paid app version. I guess the developer pulled an Open AI bait and switch and changed their model to an annual paid subscription instead of the original $20 lifetime and now wants me to pay again to unlock what I previously paid for. Look I don’t care i
