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 wasnât done this way in the first placeâŚ
Yes! This is insanely annoying, and was surprised to see no way to way to disable that notification. Whatâs worse is that accidentally hovering your cursor over it resets the timer itâs 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.
Iâve changed the topic title to be more general (old title: âMove the âPassword copiedâ notification out of the way of user listâ; new title: âNotification pop-ups should not obscure UI elementsâ) 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.
Error popup/notification in browser plugin blocks progress for too long.
Feature function
Too often, I accidentally search for and select a vault entry when Iâm on the âTabâ tab (Tab mode?) when I should be on the âVaultâ tab/mode. When I select the entry in this mode, I get the notification âUnable to autofill the selected itemâŚâ. This notification is modal, obscures the Tab/Vault/Generator/Settings bar, and stays up for 5 long seconds. It takes me about 250ms to realize my error, but I have to wait 4,750ms to be able to correct it. The best solution would be to make the alert non modal, and move it so that it does not obscure the action bar. Lacking that, the duration could be reduced.
Observed in extension version 1.46.2 in Firefox and Chrome.
Iâd like to add to this. People say Iâm a very âfastâ computer user and itâs very frustrating to wait for the green bar to fade away to be able to use the tabs below.
@Nail1684 thank you. I am glad that I am not the only one dealing with this annoying notification. I think that short update after button is clicked will be sufficient, for example change the clicked button for a sec to green check mark and than back to its default, thatâs it. No annoying popups.
I came here to add my 2 cents to this too. I find this very annoying. There are times when I have see how fast I can click before the popup appears. This crap shouldnât be happening. This is supposed to be a helpful program!
Regarding Notifications on Bitwarden Browser Extension on Chrome, Edge, etc
This has still not been fixed. And decreases usability / speed by a lot. In previous versions of bitwarden there were no notifications, and it worked perfectly. The notifications block the search bar, blocks when copying login items too quickly, or when trying to generate and copy many codes at once.
Please give an option to disable notifications, as itâs not as useful for advanced users as it may be for basic users. Have a toggle on off button in settings, so those that donât need the notifications can just turn it off. At the very least make it only show one notification at once instead of two.
