+1 Here too. Been trying to use Mac and want to get rid of as much of Apple native apps as possible including whatever they have for password manager.

itâs really useful
this should be done long time before

Thanks for the input. The Bitwarden MacOS desktop is built on Electron and there are no plans to move away from that - the move from Xamarin to native mobile apps was a result of Microsoft shutting down support for Xamarin.
That said, the team will look into enabling MacOS autofill - perhaps, itâs not too difficult if itâs available from the OS!
Thatâs great news! Like all the previous commenters, I agree that the community would very much appreciate this.
This feature would be fantastic for all Mac users. As a Native/JavaScript developer myself, I donât think it would take too much effort, especially compared to the benefits it will provide for BitWarden.
You can see a good implementation (Native Autofill) of Kaspersky Password Manager
Canât wait for the feature released
I agree with comments above, it looks like a must have feature in 2024
My opinion here is not unique - Iâd leave copy-paste login technique in the past.
iOS app can now installed for Mac from TestFlight. Is this intended behavior or glitch? However, I canât test that because I canât change server to EU.
Iâve been experimenting with it ever since it became accessible via TestFlight on MacOS.
Is the Safari inline autofill glitchy with this? Absolutely.
Does it work? Surprisingly, to some extent (passkeys can be used, for example).
Nevertheless, the TestFlight build has numerous problems on iOS as well. Itâll be interesting to see whether it works better on MacOS as they address the ongoing iOS issues. That is, assuming they donât withdraw the build from MacOS, as itâs evidently not an intentional MacOS rollout.
Nonetheless, it clearly shows the potential for native MacOS autofill.
+1 Is there any progress? I have been waiting for too long.
1+ This would make my workflow easier
+1, really looking forward to it too!
@gtran Great to see this news:
I know you mentioned the plan is to stay on Electron and the mobile app situation is motivated by Xaramin sunset, but could it be reconsidered that the new native iOS / iPadOO app could become a macOS native app? Apple provides frameworks via SwiftUI or Catalyst for this.
It would be a big differentiator against 1Password (who uses Electron and has lost users for that reason), and with Apple entering the game too in iOS 18 and macOS 15 with a standalone passwords app for iCloud Keychain, folks who want native experiences may pick Apple over BitwardenâŚ
Thanks for considering.
+1 waiting, just bought premium
This would have the additonal benefit of finally enabling Fido2WebAuthn for login on Macs. Still canât believe such an essential feature is missing and apparently not actively being worked on
Any update on this please?
This would be a killer feature for me. Most of my autofilling is done from macOS and this would really improve how this works.
iCloud keychain password storage lacks a number of features I need - but the general experience of logging into websites and apps is so much easier / friction-free than Bitwardenâs own implementation.

This has to be the single most important MacOS feature. Can we have an update on the pipeline?
Switching to MacOS = switching AWAY from Bitwarden without this feature. Safari integration only does half the job. Bitwarden becomes a burden rather than an assistant without OS support.
Mac has it own very slick, fully integrated, cloud-backed password management system to compete with. It is only cross platform support that lets Bitwarden even begin to retain Mac user market share, without OS integration that battle is as good as lost.
