My Bitwarden Premium subscription is about to expire soon, and I’m considering renewing it. I’m currently using 2FA (two-factor authentication). If my Premium subscription ends and I don’t renew it for about a week, how will the 2FA feature be affected? Will my 2FA codes become active again once I renew the subscription after a week?
Important Note: I am not using an external authenticator app for Bitwarden. I am using the built-in authenticator within the Bitwarden password manager. Please base your answers on this.
As you can confirm here, all of your TOTP authentication keys (seeds) will remain in your vault if your Premium subscription lapses. The only thing that will change is that Bitwarden will no longer generate any 6-digit TOTP codes using the stored keys. If you upgrade to Premium at a later date, the TOTP code generation will start working again.
