Why You Must Switch From Apple Passwords to Bitwarden Immediately
2 min read
Summary
While Apple Devices do offer the advantage of Apple Passwords - a built-in password manager - this does have limitations when used away from Apple’s own ecosystem, for example when trying to login from a Windows computer or Android phone.
For greater flexibility, an alternative is to use Bitwarden, a password manager trusted by cyber security experts, which is not tied to one ecosystem and can be used across a range of devices from iPhone to Android and from Mac to Windows.
Bitwarden has a range of features to make it more usable than Apple Passwords, such as enabling the user to organise login details into folders, storing secure notes and keeping sensitive files secure.
It has built-in two-factor authentication, something which Apple Passwords does not offer.
Another benefit is the ability to generate strong, unique passwords on the fly, sync across all devices and access your vault from the web.
It also offers a range of free features and has a premium tier for more advanced requirements.
To move across to Bitwarden from Apple Password requires a three-step process of installing Bitwarden, exporting saved logins from Apple and then importing them into the new Bitwarden vault.
