Anyone moved from Apple Passwords to Bitwarden? What changed?

Post

I've been using Apple Passwords because it's free and works seamlessly with my iPhone and Mac. But I'm realizing it's pretty limited compared to what other managers offer. I also have a Windows laptop that I use for work, and Apple Passwords doesn't work there at all. The ecosystem lock-in is starting to feel restrictive. Bitwarden works on literally everything iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux, browsers, you name it. It's also open-source, which means the code is publicly auditable and you're not relying on a single company to keep your data safe. The switching process is straightforward: you export your passwords from Apple Passwords as a CSV file, then import them into Bitwarden. You won't lose any functionality in fact, you'll gain features like emergency access, password sharing, and more advanced organization options. The main trade-off is that Bitwarden's interface isn't quite as polished as Apple's, but it's still solid. The free tier is actually really good, though paying $10 per year unlocks some nice features. I'm planning to make the switch myself because I need cross-platform support. Does anyone here use Bitwarden long-term and have thoughts on whether it's worth the switch from Apple?
