FAQ

Is the free version enough? Yes. The free personal plan includes unlimited password storage, unlimited devices, auto-fill, and password generation. Most people never need to upgrade.

What if I forget my master password? Your master password is not stored anywhere and cannot be reset — that is the security guarantee. Write it down and store it somewhere safe, or set up a password hint during account creation.

Is Bitwarden safe? Bitwarden uses end-to-end AES-256 encryption. Even Bitwarden cannot access your passwords. The code is publicly audited by security researchers annually.

Can I import passwords from my browser? Yes. Bitwarden can import saved passwords from Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and most other password managers.
