Autofill Cards & Identities

Bitwarden can do more than just autofill your usernames and passwords! Bitwarden browser extensions can autofill cards and identities to simplify online purchases, account creation, and more using the unique Tab view.

note

Currently, autofill for cards & identities is only available for browser extensions. Mobile platforms including Android and iOS do not currently support this type of autofill function.

Using the Tab view

To autofill a card or identity using the Tab view:

  1. Open the browser extension to see the Tab view.

    Unless you have hidden cards and/or identities from this view, your cards and identities will be listed here alongside any matching logins.

  2. Select the card or identity you want to autofill:

    Auto-fill an Identity
    Auto-fill an Identity

The browser extension will find any fields on the web page that map to card or identity information and autofill them.

Using the context menu

note

Currently unavailable in the Safari browser extension.

Without opening your browser extension, you can autofill cards and identities by right-clicking on an input field and using the Bitwarden → Autofill option. If your vault is locked when you attempt this, a window will open prompting you to unlock. Once unlocked, the browser extension will automatically proceed with autofilling your information.
