Sync Bitwarden settings, like "Lock after X minutes" or PIN

Bitwarden is fantastic. However, not being able to sync settings across devices is quite time-consuming. Specifically for the “Default URI Match Detection” which is set to “Base Domain”, this means that it matches both http://example.com and https://example.com. AFAIK, while the latter is secure, the former is not. So, no one should be transmitting their password over HTTP. So, I prefer to set my default to “Starts with” but currently I have to do it on every device or set it on every entry because entries are synced.

It would be nice if the addon settings could be sincronized between browsers, so we could have the same settings in all of them.
For password generator or the security settings it would be interesting

There are multiple ways to use the vault, various browser extensions and programs/apps on various operating systems, all in all an impressive amount of which i use quite a few.

Each extension/app offers an extensive list of options which i have to set individually. For many options i do not feel the need to divert from a choosen option and it would be handy to sync these options, just as the vault itself is synced.

Request:

  • would it be possible to (optionally) sync options?
  • If (some) options are already synced, can these be documented?

Options/setting which could be synced are possibly:

  • all password generator options
  • all options
  • settings lock options

(maybe this has been requested before, not sure, see: Customizable standard settings for the password generator)

I work on multiple OS such as Ubuntu and Windows11
I also use multiple browsers depending on the current task, Chrome, Brave, Opera, Firefox
I login on different machines
There is no universal setting on Bitwarden that allows for “never” timeout on login.
The custom setting ALWAYS defaults to 15 minutes and has to be changed to desired setting each and every time. I hate this. I would like to see a setting that can be saved so that it works on ANY OS, ANY browser, ANY machine. Thank you.
