    I’ve been using the official app on GrapheneOS on a Pixel a for over two years, havent had any issues and everything is very responsive.

    What model phone do you have?

        I also use this phone and doesn’t seem to have any issue, and I have over 700 entires in my bitwarden vault. My main browser is firefox though. If the issue is bitwarden is slow to unlock the vault, this is normal if your vault has high KDF iterations. Also, if you’re using the stock os, mi ui is very aggressive at killing background tasks, which means bitwarden will need to be relaunched over and over again and have to unlock the vault again every time, which further increase the perception of slowness.

        It has problems on the stock MIUI ROM. I have the same phone, I have experienced it. The autofill feature used to turn off automatically.

        I installed the official LineageOS, some time ago. Now, it works great, no problems at all.

      Its so slow and lagging. Even its opensource , i feels it is a very heavy app.

        How many KDF iterations did you set your vault to? I have mine at 600,000 so it definitely takes a moment (~3 sec) to decrypt on older devices.

        The decryption being compute heavy is by design. You only need to decrypt once to unlock your vault, but someone brute forcing it would need to decrypt a billion+ times. Increasing compute needed for decryption makes it more expensive to brute force your master password.

        In fact, LastPass made the mistake of setting their default iteration count to 1000 before they got breached and got a ton of flak for it.

            It doesn’t matter how many passwords you are storing inside. It’s the number of cycles of decryption needed to be performed in order to unlock the vault. More cycles = more time.

            You can have an empty vault and it will still be slow to decrypt with a high kdf iteration count/expensive algorithm.

            You can think of it as an old fashioned safe with a hand crank. You put in the key and turn the crank. It doesn’t matter if the safe is empty or not, as long as you need to turn the crank 1000 times to open it it WILL be slower than a safe that only needs 10 turns. Especially so if you have a 10 year old (less powerful device) turning the crank.

            Seems like it’s a you/your specific phone problem. Everyone else says it runs well. I have like 130 saved entries on mine and no lag.

    Really, bitwarden is poorly optimized everywhere. They cut corners at every expense using cross-platform frameworks, specifically web technologies on desktop and Xamarin on mobile. I’m hoping that someday someone writes a better client. But at least the main client has autofill down pretty well, it just becomes a pain when you want to actually do some advanced editing

    I had so many issues with Bitwarden on Android that I couldn’t use it. I’m using KeepassDX. It works well on Android, is FOSS, and isn’t cloud based.

    Not really (as a daily user) but it is a pain to wrangle some times

    I have a Pixel 7 Pro. It loads fast enough for me (~3s) considering I have 800+ entries and using argon2id with 20 KDF iterations, 256MB of memory and 8 parallelism.

    I haven’t used it outside of Windows Firefox and Android but it works great for me as well.

    For mobile specifically: Rarely do I have any issues, and when I do, I have a quick panel button for Bitwarden (top drag down menu) that lets me manually trigger it. I can’t think of any apps that it doesn’t work with. My one nit is that autofill credit card info doesn’t work often, but obv that’s a secondary use, and the info is still with me if I ever need it on the go. And adding new login info can be a little tedious on mobile – much easier to create it first, then autofill. Highly appreciate the 2FA feature too. The auto copy feature feels really seamless regardless of if I’m on my phone or not.

    I’d be curious what issues you seem to be running into with it.

      I fit into about the same categories of use as you do, and I agree with most of your assessments. My one complaint is that, when I go to enter my master password the keyboard no longer pops up automatically, instead requiring that I tap the password field to bring it up. That stated happening sometime last year, and I’ve lived with it, but it’s just a quality of life thing that I miss.

    I haven’t had any troubles, but on the phone I use it just to insert the passwords. For everything else I use it on pc.

    The recent update broke everything (it automatically locks on app exit both on Android and iOS, even if the automatic lock is set to never)

    I recently had to uninstall and reinstall both the browser extension and mobile app for bitwarden for me and it started to operate better. The main issue was whenever I tried to access either a password or card details it would freeze and crash and not insert or provide any details.
