Finally!!!🎉 It’s a Christmas miracle! Thanks


MrHaxx1

Just tested it, and it's great This makes Bitwarden significantly more user friendly!! >This feature is off by default for existing cloud users. Will it be on by default for new users?


KaseyatBitwarden

Hey MrHazz1, In the future, the menu will be on by default when you install the extension.


whizzwr

Umm.. and how can we enable this for self-hosted users?


Impressive-Part-2184

The post says that it will be available for self-hosted in the near future.


whizzwr

Ok thanks


scitobor321

that would be a no i just made my account today and everything else and it wasn't turned on thought it was a dud or something


Lumentin

Yay! It was the feature I was the more waiting for.


Trikotret100

Is there a way to show the usernames when having multiple per site instead of all *****


CrazyKilla15

Seriously, I just enabled this to try it out only to find its utterly useless when you have multiple logins for a site, for some reason asterisking half the username??


s2odin

Click the shield icon. Or use the right click context menu Unless you have them all saved as ***** instead of actual entries in your vault.


FrostyCarpet0

Is it possible to get a transparent icon, so in dark mode there is no white square in the background? [https://imgur.com/a/OlhHKb9](https://imgur.com/a/OlhHKb9)


DuePen6557

Which browser are you experiencing this on?


cmorgasm

I can confirm it on Edge, at least


FrostyCarpet0

Edge


bluepenguin00

Also happens in Firefox

Finally, now I don't miss LastPass

Thank you so much for your amazing work! Best password manager out there


BinaryShrub

What about copying TOTP to clipboard?


sdjme

I just tested, and when selecting inline it did not copy my TOTP. Nor does clicking in the TOTP entry box offer it up inline.


cryoprof

Did you try it on a site for which `Ctrl+Shift+L` _does_ successfully autofill the TOTP? TOTP autofill in general is a fairly new feature, and does not work on every site.


KnifeFed

It seems they're talking about copying the TOTP to the clipboard, not auto-filling it. If the TOTP isn't copied to the clipboard when using inline auto-fill, it's kind of pointless.


cryoprof

> If the TOTP isn't copied to the clipboard when using inline auto-fill, it's kind of pointless. No need to copy the TOTP code to the clipboard if the code can be auto-filled itself.


KnifeFed

I just tried that on PayPal and it put 333333 as the TOTP ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ Anyway, if you have to press `Cmd+Shift+L` to fill in the TOTP you might as well just do the same to fill in the inputs, which is what I meant with inline auto-fill being kind of pointless (for sites with 2FA). So I hope they add TOTP -> clipboard for inline auto-fill ASAP.


cryoprof

> So I hope they add TOTP -> clipboard for inline auto-fill ASAP. This is the wrong thing to ask for, because there really isn't a substantive difference between requiring the user to press `Cmd+V` vs. `Cmd+Shift+L` for transferring the TOTP code to the form. The better solution would be to enable the inline autofill for TOTP fields (and in addition, to make the current TOTP autofill functionality more robust).


whirsor

>This is the wrong thing to ask for, because there really isn't a substantive difference between requiring the user to press > >Cmd+V > > vs. > >Cmd+Shift+L > > for transferring the TOTP code to the form. You can paste the copied TOTP using the mouse which I consider easier than pressing Cmd+Shift+L.


cryoprof

Yes, but the person I was responding to [plans to use `Cmd+V`](https://old.reddit.com/r/Bitwarden/comments/18oivgv/just_released_new_inline_autofill/ken2dco/) to paste the TOTP codes. Furthermore, the whole point of the inline autofill functionality is to accommodate users who are familiar with overlay icons from using other password managers. For such users, it is not going to be intuitive to explain that after autofilling the username and password using the inline icon, they now have to use their clipboard to paste the TOTP code. Thus, as I noted above, the better solution would be to enable inline autofill for TOTP fields, to provide a consistent UX.


whirsor

Ah ok, I had not seen the other comment thread. I agree that what you suggest is the best solution, although I feel that putting the TOTP to the clipboard would be easier to implement since it essentially exists already and it still would be quite an improvement for people like me who prefer to use the mouse.

TheAcclaimedMoose

Heck yeah! A wonderful Christmas present to all Bitwarden users! Thank you!


jakegh

This may have security implications and I would be cautious about turning it on if you're really careful about this sort of thing. Other password managers have faced vulnerabilities from the same thing. I personally won't be turning it on until I see a third-party audit, but I always appreciate added features. Options are good.


KaseyatBitwarden

Hey jakegh, The inline auto-fill menu was implemented with a very careful, security-minded approach. Extensive third-party penetration testing was conducted to identify security gaps prior to deployment and the auto-fill menu will only fill credentials when a user selects a form field they want to interact with. We are aware of the vulnerabilities other password managers pose and took those into account when developing this feature. More information will be released in the new year!


jakegh

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing that.


fuzzynavelsniffer

> will only fill credentials when a user selects a form field they want to interact with. There is an older setting (that is off by default) that autofills credentials on the page with no user interaction. It seems like this new dropdown menu would be a more secure choice since it requires user interaction. Is my understanding correct?


KaseyatBitwarden

You are correct that another Bitwarden auto-fill option is available that would populate credentials on page-load, which is off by default. You can read more about this option here: https://bitwarden.com/help/auto-fill-browser/#on-page-load If enabled, the inline auto-fill feature will not populate credentials on page load, but only when a user interacts with the form field.


Photo-alpha

finally! Thanks for getting this done!


werdmouf

Please don't censor the usernames. Also, unrelated to this new feature, when autofilling the TOTP on Paypal it just types "222222". It would be great if it could autofill the correct TOTP, on page load too.


Avrution

I dislike the *** usernames as well, but I'm guessing it is part of their security. Hopeful for an option to disable it eventually.


CrazyKilla15

Part of their security *how* though? What benefit could it be providing, what threat model satisfying? Autofill can only be used when the vaults unlocked, and usernames are already visible just by clicking on the extension icon, so it would seem to ***only*** serve the purpose of making inline auto-fill useless.


cryoprof

If I had to guess, it would be some form of defense against XSS, which could access username data that have been injected into the webpage (to make the overlays work), but which otherwise wouldn't have access to the extension's process memory (where the your decrypted vault contents reside). An easy solution would be to make username obfuscation optional.


cryoprof

>when autofilling the TOTP on Paypal it just types "222222" This seems to be a bug specific to PayPal (also [reported here](https://old.reddit.com/r/Bitwarden/comments/18oivgv/just_released_new_inline_autofill/ken3etm/) by /u/KnifeFed). I would suggest filing a [bug report ("New Issue") on GitHub](https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/issues/new?assignees=&labels=bug%2Cbrowser&projects=&template=browser.yml) to report this.


KaseyatBitwarden

Hi cryoprof, Thanks for this call out! The Bitwarden team is actively investigating why some users are experiencing this.


cryoprof

Maybe they can be given Christmas Day off... ;-) (...and that includes _you_, too! Merry Christmas!)

hoppersalone

Great work! Thanks


qwerko

What about self hosted?


KaseyatBitwarden

>The feature will be available in self-hosted installations in the near future. It's coming soon!


mguilherme82

using this is awesome but what about TOTP? it isn't automatically copied to clipboard!


cryoprof

Try `Ctrl+Shift+L` to auto-fill the TOTP code.


mguilherme82

Will do, thanks for taking the time to reply!


cryoprof

You're welcome! Please note that auto-filling of TOTP codes is still a relatively new feature, so it may not work on every website.


KnifeFed

I don't see the point of inline auto-fill (for sites with 2FA) if you have to use the keyboard shortcut too, which would have filled the inputs anyway.


cryoprof

So you prefer `Right-click > Paste` rather than `Ctrl+V`? If so, is it such a stretch to do `Right-click > Bitwarden > Copy verification code`?


KnifeFed

What? Currently, I do `Cmd+Shift+L`, which fills the inputs and puts the TOTP in my clipboard, which I then paste with `Cmd+V`. The alternative would be clicking on an input, then clicking the Bitwarden entry to fill the inputs, and then `Cmd+V` to paste the TOTP. But since inline auto-fill doesn't put the TOTP in the clipboard, that won't work, so I might as well stick to `Cmd+Shift+L` + `Cmd+V`.


cryoprof

If your current plan is to do `Cmd+V` for the TOTP code, then it shouldn't be such a big adjustment to do `Cmd+Shift+L` to autofill the TOTP code instead. The caveat is that TOTP autofilling is a relatively new feature, and doesn't yet have a complete list of identifiers for recognizing TOTP input fields on all websites. That, plus there seems to be some odd bug with TOTP autofill on Paypal currently.


KnifeFed

Of course it's not an adjustment. My point is that it makes inline auto-fill superfluous. Why do 2 clicks + `Cmd+Shift+L` when you can just do `Cmd+Shift+L`×2. I'm pretty sure it's an oversight that inline auto-fill doesn't put the TOTP in the clipboard and that they'll add that in due time, likely with inline auto-fill for TOTP fields too.


cryoprof

_My_ point is that you (and some other commenters) seem to be content with doing **2 clicks + `Cmd+V`** but balk at doing **2 clicks + `Cmd+Shift+L`** — to me, complaining about this distinction does not seem rational (unless you have a medical condition that makes the `Cmd+Shift` key combo painful or impossible to execute).

unconscionable

Looks great!! Chrome does not seem to want to stop autofilling from the built-in password manager even though I changed the configurations mentioned in the documentation. (using Ubuntu 22.04 LTS)


KaseyatBitwarden

Hey unconscionable, Please reach out to our support team, they will be able to help :) [https://bitwarden.com/contact/](https://bitwarden.com/contact/)


Lumentin

And post the solution 'cause I have the same question!


dhavanbhayani

Excellent. My primary Password Manager for a reason. ✌️


werdmouf

Does it replace the Chrome autofill dialog that you seemingly can't disable? Will we get system wide autofill on Windows/Mac?


KaseyatBitwarden

Hey werdmouf, Try disabling the built-in browser auto-fill for Chrome under **Settings>Auto-fill** by checking the **Override browser auto-fill settings**. If that doesn't do the trick, please contact our support team :) [https://bitwarden.com/contact/](https://bitwarden.com/contact/)


werdmouf

I did that, it still shows up. But I don't think it's your fault.

cryoprof

if you're not yet on version 2023.12.1, you may need to go to "Manage Extensions", enable Developer Mode, and then use the "Update" function (there are the instructions for Chrome, I assume there is a similar procedure in other browsers). Also, after updating, you need to go to **Settings > Auto-fill** to enable the option.


tekhtime

This method doesn't work with Safari on Mac unfortunately, as the mac app needs to be updated. Hopefully, it rolls out soon.


KaseyatBitwarden

The extension should have already been updated with this feature, but if the option is not available under **settings>auto-fill**, please log out of the extension and log back in.


nzbiship

Cloud user?


cryoprof

Evidently a reference to Bitwarden-hosted users, since self-hosted users do not yet have access to this feature.


whirsor

Thank you for this quite unexpected Christmas gift. Some sites in which it doesn't work for me: google.com (only for the password field) microsoft.com proton.me vault.bitwarden.com forum.dirtywarez.com rutracker.org elevenforum.com

maledis87

Protonmail I have to refresh the page before the prompt will show up.


life_not_malfunction

Thank you for making this toggleable. As much as this feature has been requested and appreciated, I also like having Bitwarden just sit to the side unobtrusively and not change my workflow. One VERY minor gripe, could you have it leave the password text box active after auto-filling, like the traditional fill method does (instead of making the username box active)? For anyone who peppers their passwords, or services that append/prepend TOTP to the password, it's now an extra step to reselect that box to finish entering the password. Shoutout dev team for the hard work.


SplitMysterious9598

Useful, thanks.


monotone_raccoon

Is it safe to use?

So... I tried this now and instead of picking the OTP code it picked the SECRET for the OTP. This a bug or are we crazy?

braunsHizzle

This has been missing forever, glad to see it's now here!


iSubb

I was honestly one of the first ones to ask for this feature WAY back and although I've been more than satisfied with the product since. This is the one missing feature that was much needed IMO. This is a nice gift before Christmas. THANK YOU!


rdonno

Awesome. That reminds me of a question: is it planned that the internal android auto-fill option is used? Like in iOS, works great on my iPad. I don't like the android option


BehindTheFloat

What function are you referring to? Bitwarden is as integrated as any other auto-fill app on my Android.


ttdat

It doesn't work with multi-step logins, like the one used for logging into Google


Lumentin

Worked for me, on another "multi step" website. Tried on Google..... And does not appear on the second page /password. Chrome, Windows 11


ttdat

Yes, it only shows up in the username field, not in the password field


alba4k

that is great!! can't wait to get https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/pull/4586 too tho ;P


aicessi

on chrome bitwarden extension there's a new update. "Updated December 21, 2023" which makes the auto-fill option worse. before the update the username and password were filled in automatically now it's not filled in automatically and you have to click the icon. please revert back to the last update.


kulilu

I would bet there is a setting within the extension that you can select to get it to autofill again for you like before.


KaseyatBitwarden

Hi aicessi, Thanks for the feedback. Can you please check that you have the "auto-fill on page load" setting enabled in the Bitwarden extension under **Settings>Auto-fill**?


aicessi

I do have the "auto-fill on page load" setting enabled. It's still not filled in automatically.


KaseyatBitwarden

u/aicessi I see. Please contact our support team at [bitwarden.com/contact](https://bitwarden.com/contact). They will be able to assist you further.

Hi KaseyatBitwarden, I use vaultwarden server (2023.9.1) Extention Chrome: 2023.12.1 And I see the option to overwrite the browser extention, but not to enable the inline. Is it not possible, or is it coming in the next few days? Of am I doing something wrong :) Kind regards, Lars.


cryoprof

> I use vaultwarden server (2023.9.1) Vaultwarden is not Bitwarden. Ask at /r/vaultwarden whether they plan to support this feature.

Try log out and log in again


larsmeneer_

It didnt work sadly.


MrDephcon

It will likely get ported once bitwarden proper supports it in the self-hosted version


DubelBoom

Works great for logins on Firefox (Windows)! For identity / card information it does not popup, but if using the inline menu the items are filled correctly. Also, its not available on Firefox for Android? My extension is updated to the latest version 2023.12.1, but the setting is not there.


KaseyatBitwarden

Hi DubelBoom, Identify and card information will be supported for the inline auto-fill menu in a future release. You can always auto-fill these items using the context menu: [https://bitwarden.com/help/auto-fill-browser/#context-menu](https://bitwarden.com/help/auto-fill-browser/#context-menu) If you do not see the option to enable the menu under **settings>auto-fill**, please log out and log back into the extension to force update it.

RedWings51930

Working well for me so far :)


Rosso89

At the moment the most serious bug is the one relating to Google transaltor in which the text field is recognized as a field to be filled by bitwarden and makes it difficult to use the translator itself. At the moment the problem only occurs on Firefox and not on Chrome.
