Browser extension shortcuts

Note

Autofill for Microsoft Edge requires the latest Chromium-based version.
Some browsers may use the below key combinations for other default shortcuts and may require configuration.
You can configure browser extension shortcuts on most Chrome-based browsers (Chrome, Edge, Vivaldi, Brave, etc.) by visiting chrome://extensions/shortcuts.
Firefox shortcuts can be changed by managing extension shortcuts.

Ctrl/CMD + Shift + Y → Activate extension
Ctrl/CMD + Shift + L → Autofill, press again to cycle through matching logins
Ctrl/CMD + Shift + 9 → Generate a password and copy it to the clipboard
Ctrl/CMD + Shift + N → Lock extension

Tip

If a login uses the Bitwarden Authenticator for TOTPs, using the Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + L will automatically copy your TOTP to your clipboard after auto-filling. All you have to do is Cmd/Ctrl + V to paste!
