How we grade them

3.2GPA1PasswordVery good3.2GPARoboFormVery good
Value for money
B$3.99 a month on yearly billing isn't much, and Families covers five people for $5.99. But Bitwarden Premium is $1.65 and its free plan may be all you need, so you're paying extra for polish.
B$29.88 a year undercuts LastPass and 1Password, and Business at $3.33 a person has single sign-on included. Bitwarden is still cheaper if it's just you.
Free plan and trial
CThere's no free plan. You do get 14 days on any plan with no card needed. But Bitwarden and Proton Pass are free for good, so in this category that's thin.
BUnlimited passwords, form filling and a built-in authenticator, free for good. But it's one device, with no syncing. Bitwarden syncs everywhere for nothing.
Features
AAutofill for logins, cards and two-factor codes, passkeys, Watchtower alerts for leaked passwords, sharing by a link that expires, and shared vaults. Developers get a command-line tool too.
ALogins, long forms, passkeys, one-time codes, sharing, emergency access and a local-only mode. It even logs you in to Windows programs. Hard to spot a gap.
Ease of use
B4.7 from about 42,000 App Store ratings, so most people get on with it. But reviewers who moved from version 7 to 8 found it harder, and some say autofill misses or it asks for the password too often.
B4.7 from about 48,800 App Store ratings, and people who've had it twenty years call it easy. It does have its own habits, like its own browser on the iPhone.
Platforms and integrations
AMac, Windows, Linux, iPhone, Android and Apple Watch, with extensions for Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox and Brave. Business plans plug into Okta, Entra ID, OneLogin and Duo.
BWindows, Mac, iPhone, Android, Apple Watch, the web, and Chrome, Edge and Firefox. Linux and Chrome OS only get the browser extension.
