Conclusion
This is a great password manager and I use it on all my devices. The only issue I have is that it doesn't seem to work with Safari. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks for any help!
If you're having trouble using Bitwarden with Safari, try installing the extension for Firefox. It should work with that browser. Alternatively, you can use the cloud-based option and access your passwords on any device.
