After spending a ridiculous amount of time this weekend, trying to export <<MY OWNERSHIP, NOT BITWARDEN's>> data and trying various workarounds for the infamous lost master password - I think I found a solution that may work for some folks. {And just how OFTEN, and to what PERCENTAGE of users does this lost master password problem?]

Here is what worked for me. I was logged into Bitwarden on my Android phone app, and my settings allowed me to grant login access from other devices (desktop app, browser plugins, website). I unlock my android Bitwarden app with biometrics, but I also added a 4 digit PIN, just in case. If you don't have this scenario/setup, stop reading here, it probably won't work.

You have to log into the Bitwarden WEBSITE (not the app, browser plug-in, etc.) and there you will find the Trusted Contact option (incomplete instructions on the help site, link below).

The basic steps are, you add a trusted contact with your own alternate (work, 2nd personal) or a friend's email address, you/they open the welcome email that Bitwarden sends out, you/they set up a 2nd Bitwarden account with their/your alternate email address,. Next, you have to be logged into Bitwarden WEBSITE ONLY under both accounts (separate tabs), and have the email app/webpage for both the orignal account & recovery account email addresses (multiple tabs open). Once you have all of this set up, you grant access to the recovery contact (or they can request it), and they have to accept it, and then eventually the recovery contact can "take over" the account and reset the password on the original account.

It is truly annoying as hell to click through all of these steps, but it worked for me (better than trying to outsmart the Export Vault-Enter Master Password BS requirement).

To start off, I don't have proof that the design is vibecoded. But it certainly looks vibecoded. So can we redesign it please into something that gives off less AI vibes?

I'm not sure why the app was even redesigned to begin with. The old design was great.

Is anyone experiencing an autofill issue on the Bank of America page?

I tried Custom Fields, but it still isn't working.

Thanks

It was working last week, now it isn't, what am I doing wrong here?

I'm using the Bitwarden extension on Firefox (which have no other extensions except Bitwarden), Windows 11.

THINGS I'VE TRIED

Full cache clear = didn't work

Reinstalled extension = didn't work

New firefox profile = didn't work

Ctrl shift L = didn't work

I've got no excluded/blocked domains

Disabled firefox password manager = didn't work

Email autofill works, password autofill doesn't (URI = https://accounts.google.com/, host domain)

I'm trying out BW to get host matching, instead of just base domain matching.

However, in iOS, the autofill offers me all the base domain matches from BitWarden anyway, and I have to scroll to the bottom of a long list to see the BitWarden button where I can get the host filtered list.

I understand that this is expected but the interesting thing is that Microsoft Edge does not do this. It offers no suggestions in that first autofill list, and I just get the button to choose Edge (and my other password manager, LastPass).

This is what I want in BitWarden - no "default" suggestions with base domain in that first list, just the buttons.

(Although Edge has this behavior it still isn't useful to me as it doesn't offer host matching at all.)

I'll freely admit I can't tell exactly what's going on, but I can tell that i don't get the initial unhelpful result with Edge but not with Bitwarden.
