I would just love if it appeared more than 60% of the time it's supposed to on Android.

I'm sick of the dance of switching apps a few times to try to 'wake up' Bitwarden when I'm staring at a login page in my browser with no Bitwarden prompt anywhere, closing and reopening the browser, manually opening Bitwarden, switching apps a few times, then giving up and manually copying and pasting my password.

I had this same issue for years on Android with Bitwarden. I’m not sure how the password manager related APIs work to make it appear on android, but since switching to iOS, it always presents me with a generic “passwords” option, which then gets me to Bitwarden. Sometimes it’ll flag the specific account, but not always - this seems to be like the android quirk. I’d much prefer if android has that generic “password” option at all times, even when it didn’t know Bitwarden had an account for this service.

I too am very annoyed by this, and it has been happening for as long as I can remember. KeePassDX [1] works around this by providing a custom keyboard you can use to fill in your passwords anywhere.

I think it's because Android very aggressively swaps out third-party background apps. https://dontkillmyapp.com/

FWIW this is not exclusive to Bitwarden. 1password also suffers from this frustrating UX.
