Is there a reason to use the mobile extension over the app itself? The app can input into other apps as well
Don't know honestly - I've never tried the app so I don't have a comparison. Didn't even know they had one.
Ah nice :)
I find it a lot better, worth a try if you can get it

Part of why I picked Bitwarden over keepass was that it had nice apps/extensions for all my devices, like you said. I didn't miss any features when I switched, and instead gained a few cool ones.
The app is nice if you want to use bitwarden to login to other appa. You can allow it permission to run alongside other apps that can fill in login forms.
The desktop application runs on Chromium, so that’s something to consider.
I have never even got the mobile extension to work. When I set it up and enter in my email and master password, the Captcha that is supposed go show up is missing entirely. There is just a blank space under the password field where the Captcha is supposed to have appeared.
If you have a custom DNS or VPN, that might be blocking the CAPTCHA.
