I just now found the option to use BW as the default password manager.
Unfortunately, when using this option, it does not autofill addresses/email addresses (i.e., when ordering things). Google Chrome did a great job of doing this.
You can just go to Settings > Auto-fill and uncheck the checkbox for “Make Bitwarden your default password manager”, after which you can go back and enable native auto-filling of personal information in the browser settings (chrome://settings/addresses). Obviously, don’t enable the Google Password Manager.
Is it indeed possible to enable Chrome’s autofill but disable Chrome’s password manager? The option is disabled for me (and it seem like that needs to happen on the Bitwarden extension side)?
@lazytt Thanks, but I didn’t understand which “Settings” where meant here.
But I checked it now myself - “Auto-fill” is only a settings-option in the Bitwarden browser extension (in Chrome it is called “Passwords and auto-fill”)… and now checking it in my Brave extension, I can see it myself now (wasn’t aware of that option)
Is your previous screenshot (copied below) what you see after you have disabled the setting “Make Bitwarden your default password manager”?
Also, if you go to Manage Extensions and disable the Bitwarden browser extension, does the Chrome Password Manager still prompt you to save passwords? If not, what happens if you then re-enable the Bitwarden browser extension in Manage Extensions, without making any other changes? Do the password saving prompts from the Chrome Password Manager re-appear?
Unfortunately that is not an option, as it was explained by other users above.
When the Bitwarden extension is enabled, the value of the “Offer to save passwords” setting in Google Password Manager seems to be tied to the value of “Make Bitwarden your default password manager” in Bitwarden (precisely the inverse of it).
Disable “Make Bitwarden your default password manager”, then uninstall the Bitwarden extension and reinstall it. Refrain from enabling “Make Bitwarden your default password manager”, and if you see the prompt below when making changes to the autofill settings, make sure that you always click Cancel:
