- Create a strong password for a new login with one click
There are many ways to automatically fill out passwords and other forms with Bitwarden; one of the easiest is the inline autofill menu. This menu pops up when the Bitwarden browser extension detects that something could be autofilled or saved as a vault item. It can already be used to autofill logins, credit cards, identities, and even passkeys. New updates to the inline autofill menu now support streamlined account creation and autofill, helping users stay safe online.
When visiting a website where there’s no login saved in your Bitwarden vault, simply select the password field, and the inline autofill menu will suggest a strong, generated password to use. The generated password is based on your browser extension’s current password generator settings. You can choose to use the first generated password or opt to generate another password by clicking the regenerate icon.
Once autofilled, select + New Login to save the login to your vault, including the website name, entered username, and generated password!
Don't worry, if you forget to add it to your vault before submitting, Bitwarden will offer to save the login afterward.
Using a machine-generated, strong password that’s unique for every online account is the best way to stay safe online, and the inline autofill menu makes it even easier to do so.
More options have been added that affect how inline autofill works. Now, in addition to turning inline autofill completely on or off, you can independently choose what types of data are suggested to be autofilled.
Easily choose whether identities (address, email, phone number) and credit cards are suggested alongside passwords. This is convenient if you find yourself interacting with multiple forms that may not need a vault item, or you prefer only specific types of information to be suggested.
These settings can be accessed in the browser extension under Settings > Autofill.
