As mentioned above, someone has created an autotype thing for Bitwarden. Yes it is not official but it works very well and I use it frequently. IF you want to use the most recent algorithim update, you have to manually update the cli package thats been included as it hasnt been changed in this tool but it WORKS

Yup, +1 for this please. I have come over from 1Password and miss this feature when filling MacOS dialogues for network share and other things that aren’t in Safari. Thanks

+1 for this! Bitwarden is a good app already and would be even better if it properly integrates with macOS.

Over 5 years of waiting and no real progress…

Auto-Type is one of my most used features of KeePass as a sysadmin. It just works almost everywhere (RDP, consoles, nested connections, remote support solutions…) and is certainly more secure than copy and paste.

Positively do not recommend any 3rd party middle man working with your passwords, ever. Just deal with the extra 10 seconds of work it is to manually copy/paste.
+1 for this. I have been a bitwarden user for years and just patiently wait.
+1 this would be so great!
Yes! Please Bitwarden! Please implement this feature!!! 
+1 from me too. This feature is well needed. I was surprised about the lack of this function, since iOS and iPadOS offer to implement Bitwarden as the system-wide password manager.

This goes beyond a little extra work, though. Any time a password gets on your clipboard it is immediately available to any application on your system. Additionally, there’s the possibility of accidentally pasting it into a location where you really don’t want to. I’ve seen it happen numerous times, and that is only getting worse as more and more applications decide that disabling the “copy” function is, somehow, a security feature.
Copying and pasting passwords is bad juju; we should be doing what we can to avoid it.

any updates for this feature？
This is a must-have feature. I had to switch to Bitwarden from Keepass for some reasons and this is ‘pain in the ■■■’ in comparison to auto-type feature from Keepass (not saying about custom macros like {PICKCHAR})
The only viable solution now is to type the password manually, which simply isn’t doable given the length of the random passwords these days.
Having to do that all day long resulted in us moving to a lot simpler passwords for a lot of systems that should be better secured.
Having to type them, especially over remote connections, exposes them to a lot of different keylogger opportunities. Which results in even worse security.
Also the request is not to copy the user/passwords to the clipboard, which is exactly what does not work for these application.
Whatever the solution is to this problem is gonna carry some implications, either bitwarden performs the keystrokes or users start using simple passwords again and start bypassing bitwarden altogether.
It’s a choice between two evils, having a basic solution,that right now isn’t being implemented because of security concerns, creates bigger and worse security concerns in the end.
+1 I love the native integration (and therefore replacement of keychain) on iOS and was quite surprised not to find the same functionality when I bought a macbook.
Hi folks - thanks for all the chatter and discussion here. Bitwarden now has a dedicated autofill team that will review our autofill implementation at large, including auto-type. The autofill team is focusing on the proof-of-concept on the overlay with the next priority for the team being research into auto-type. The research will be to look at a solution that can broadly support all desktop applications and the nuances in how they implement login.

Oddly enough, I was surprised to find the not-yet-mature-enough Proton Pass will allow this functionality.
Was this implemented? I can’t seem to find it in the current release of Bitwarden. I am self-hosted.
Could this thread and the corresponding votes be merged with this topic as it’s basically the same feature request?

I’d love this feature!
Any update on if this is on the roadmap?
Is there an update on this? Given the updated macOS Sonoma with the built in OS autofill feature
