If you add a New login item (in the browser extension) and go straight up to the “Autofill options”…
Put a random URI in that field - minimum length: 32 characters (I tested it with https://github.com/bitwarden/cli - you can make it longer but not shorter) → does it (or rather: not the gear icon itself but the popup text that appears) also begin to flicker for you when you move the mouse to the gear icon of that URI? (it doesn’t flicker right in the center of the icon though)
Ah, and no flickering on the Firefox extension 2025.10.0 for me…
And while you’re there: was there never a delete button for a single URI?
… but we never were able to delete single URIs?? – PS: Okay, you can always delete the text to delete the URI…)
Whoever can reproduce this – “New login” is only the quickest way to experience it… I can also see the missing delete button in “Edit” mode of existing login items with only one URI – and the flickering of the gear icon with every URI that is long enough…
I observe the same thing. There are actually two independent, but related issues that cause the behavior I am observing.
Bitwarden has recently (in 2025.11.0?) introduced a new type of pop-up (different from the conventional “tool tips” text), which is displayed as a large bubble containing some explanatory text. As you can see in the screenshot below, such a bubble pop-up appears when I hover my mouse over the gear icon (or anywhere over the click-target, highlighted as a light blue square behind the gear icon).
Now as you can see in the screenshot below, the first bug is that if the URL is too long to fit in the bubble, then the text overflows the bubble boundary:
Importantly, if there is only one URI (no ⦵ Delete icon), then the pop-up bubble is to the left of the gear icon (when there are multiple URIs, the pop-up bubble is above the gear icon, which does not trigger the second bug).
The second bug is that if you hover the mouse over any part of the URL string that overlaps the gear icon click target (blue box), then the pop-up bubble will flicker rapidly. For me, I can trigger this bug even with a 30-character URL (https://github.com/bitwarden/c) — as you can see in the screenshot above, the c in cli already overlaps the gear icon click-target. Perhaps the bubble width or font size is slightly different on your system.
In addition, under conditions that trigger the second bug, the mouse symbol will consist of a pointing finger icon together with a cursor eyebeam symbol ( ⌶ ). Normally, it is either just an eyebeam (if the mouse is over the Website URI string) or just a pointing finger (if the mouse is over the gear icon click-target).
P.S.:
There used to be a ⦵ Delete icon also for single URIs, back in version 2024.11.2. I don’t know exactly when this was removed, but it seems intentional (as a way to “streamline” the UI)_.
For the “Launch” button in the Vault view (but not in the View Login view), the flickering occurs only when the mouse pointer is hovered exactly over the small triangle at the bottom of the bubble pop-up.
I have found three other examples of this occurring when text overflows the bubble boundary (“Launch” button in View Login view, as well as the “Copy Info” and “More Options” buttons in the Vault view).
At least this one flickers without overflow. (PS: Well, but also when it overflows.) Edit: I confused this here – and meant the “Launch” button in Vault view.
But especially those that flicker with overflow: the different lengths of translations / different languages could make this a surprise party.
