Lacking major features: Save-Prompts for example!

[tgreer (Trey Greer)]

Hi @NinjaSY! I moved this to a user-user support question since we have topics for your items already.

@NinjaSY

1- Doesn’t prompt to save (add to vault) for new a login!
This is really annoying, and guess Bitwarden is programmed to not ask for saving a new login if an already existing one was available, which is very bad, someone can have multiple accounts on a certain single platform. For example, when I logged in to Facebook using my sister’s account, nothing absolutely happened, I was hoping to see notification at the top a popup asking me to add this new login to the vault (just like most well-known password managers do) and so I had to add it manually which is inconvenient .

3- Doesn’t prompt to save a new a signup even though the password was generated using Bitwarden!!!
So, requiring extra inconvenient steps to generate passwords can somewhat be bearable, but not saving the password it generated is a serious problem! What if I forget to add the login info to the vault? What if after the signup procedure I got distracted and copied some text and hadn’t have my clipboard turned on? in that case, I will never be able to add anything to the vault and I will have to do the signup procedure all over again!! This is the number 1 issue you have to look into. When the user generates a password and completes the sign-up form, everything should be automatically saved to the vault or at least show a notification asking the user if they want to add that x username and that y password to the Bitwarden vault. I don’t know if this was just a problem with those 2 specific forms I tried, that for some weird reason weren’t recognized by Bitwarden but recognized by other password managers!!!

2- Generating passwords isn’t convenient enough, every time you’ll need to click on the extension and go to generate password and copy and paste!!
So I created a new account on some online shopping website, and when I got to the “set up a password” bar I was hoping to see a little icon to prompt me to generate a random password by Bitwarden, but turns out Bitwarden doesn’t have this basic yet very helpful functionality. I thought Bitwarden didn’t recognize the form correctly and hence didn’t find a password bar, but tried on other websites and I confirmed that Bitwarden doesn’t have such a thing as little popup icon on forms (which again, most password managers do have!!) (also copy and pasting is very bad from security perspective, because the generated password will be saved in the system’s clipboard as plain text, some clipboards don’t clear data within certain time interval, like for example Android’s built-in clipboard keeps copied text for 7 days!)

Feature request topic:

• Overlay popup interface

Hope this help!

If you’d like to create additional feature request topics, it is very helpful to have one request per topic so we can track them
