Notification pop-ups should not obscure UI elements

After copying a password/TOTP, a notification saying it was successful perfectly covers the User List drop down. I am already done with copying and pasting on one account by the time I want to change user, so I have to click to close the notification every single time. This is getting insufferable.

Easily solved by either allowing the user to move/set where it shows up, or just permanently set it to be in the bottom right by default where there are no UI elements to cover. Makes me wonder why it wasn’t done this way in the first place…

Yes! This is insanely annoying, and was surprised to see no way to way to disable that notification. What’s worse is that accidentally hovering your cursor over it resets the timer it’s counting down from - for no apparent benefit other than being in your way a bit longer and forcing you to click on the X to close it.

Allow the user to disable this, it serves no purpose, and whenever I try to copy multiple items, the notifications cover it up and make the extension unusable.

I’ve changed the topic title to be more general (old title: “Move the ‘Password copied’ notification out of the way of user list”; new title: “Notification pop-ups should not obscure UI elements”) and changed the app: tag from app:desktop to app:all (since some of the comments refer to the browser extension).

My personal opinion is that all of these messages should displayed by the OS as toast messages (instead of being displayed by the Bitwarden apps and extensions as UI overlays). That would allow the user to hide/disable messages from Bitwarden, and it would reduce or eliminate the problem of notices obscuring the Bitwarden UI.
