      There something I don’t understand. How does one use Bitwarden daily? It generates, remembers and autofill passwords, right? I rarely enter a password anywhere. What am I missing? Please educate me.

        There are certain sites which terminate your sessions after a while. For example, banking sites or most government portals. In such situations, the auto fill function is very handy.

          Also the fact that if you use a shared machine at all to login, it’s best practice to intentionally log out of everything, and clear cookies/cache when you’re done.

          It also allows you to use long, complex, safe passwords, use different ones on every site, and not have to remember them.

        Like the other commenter said, I use it for sites that tend to sign me out after a few hours. I also use it for work things that sign out every session.
