1:20 Comparing these two encryption algorithms is like comparing a 10 foot thick hardened steel airtight door with 10 locks to a 12 foot thick one with 15 locks, and they're both installed in impenetrable bunkers. They're both overkill, just one is more overkill than the other. Maybe there might be more consequential differences in a quantum computing world but I don't know much of anything on that subject.
4:14 I mean, wouldn't this be the case for the other password managers as well? Not an android user but just knowing how mobile operating systems go and the sheer diversity of different android systems that are out there, this seems like it's an OS issue rather than with the password manager. Also the Bitwarden mobile app is a lot more conveniently designed than its desktop and extension counterparts, and makes use of operating system native autofill, meaning it can autofill in nearly any app as opposed to just the browser.
2:07 Honestly, this is a fair critique. At the very least, Bitwarden should have a settings button, a Lock Vault button, and a Sync button in the sidebar, and have their Reports feature somewhere in the desktop app.
Really one of the only gripes I have with Bitwarden is their lack of an autotype feature for autofilling into applications which are not browsers, like game launchers or Windows apps for example. There is an open source solution I have found for Windows, and it is very useful and convenient and protects against keyloggers and clipboard sniffers, but the setup can be a bit of a headache if you don't know what you're doing. The research for an autotype solution was literally on Bitwarden's roadmap a few years ago and it hasn't been seen since - for whatever reason, Bitwarden is actively choosing NOT to include autotype.
I think the reason why they didn't really put any kind of focus UX design is because they are going towards passkeys. but as of now we are too early for passkeys yet.
2:26 Really the only reason you'll need to access the password generator window is to change the parameters for the password you're generating, or if you're generating a username or password for a login you're not going to save to your vault. When you are adding or editing a login, there is a convenient button to generate usernames and password using the last parameters/settings you set right in their respective boxes, right next to the password audit and show/hide buttons.
1:48 A note for other viewers - You may notice two of these options are greyed out and marked as premium features. These are proprietary options, and are entirely optional and not essential for your account's security. The free options are all open standards and work just fine (although I wouldn't recommend using the email option if you can avoid it).
Great video and I use the program. Note: Under Win 11 perfectly with all browsers, but Pixel 6 with Android 14 no autofill with Chrome (Firefox works perfectly). Therefore not a full recommendation on my part.
I like bitwarden paid single user that I can share with my wife. I do not know any other more intuitive password managers that offer a single license that can be shared with my wife. Do you know any other password managers that do?
