If you go to Settings -> Appearance and enable show quick actions, you can reenable the 1 click copy password again. Enabling compact mode and disabling animations also helps a lot.
Yes, but then you have to click the little "Fill" button. And if you enable "Click items to enable autofill on Vault view", you have to Rightclick -> View to edit stuff.
cmd+shift+l, or ctrl+shift+l (lower case L)should just autofill even the totp fields (notably and annoyingly not totp for microsoft auth though)

If you enable Autofill > Copy TOTP Automatically, when you use that keybind it'll copy the TOTP to your clipboard so that you can paste it in when prompted for it
I think you can fix this with the setting "Click items to autofill on Vault view".

Thanks for pointing us to this documentation. However, on my android app, the settings mentioned in tips 1 and 2 don't exist.
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.
FWIW this is not exclusive to Bitwarden. 1password also suffers from this frustrating UX.
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/

Yes. This. They change the look adding more clicks and moving things around offering NEGATIVE value. At least they fixed biometric desktop auth but without telling you that you had to remove the extension and clean up some stuff to get it to work.

You can disable that but changing the domain matching algorithm (or whatever it's called, it's not difficult to find). By default it matches to domain.tld, but you can request the exact match.
I much prefer the new UI. I usually use the keyboard shortcut to fill passwords and the UI for editing.
Before it was two clicks to edit. Plus it would lose context if the popup was closed.
I just noticed on my Edge browser, I have two different profiles (work and personal). on 1 profile, I have a one-click interface (fill, copy UN, copy Pwd, copy 2fa code. On the other profile, I have two click interface as you described.
So do this: go to setting (lower right coner) -> appearance -> set width to extra wide, check compact mode, check show quick actions.
that should do it.
Not only does it unnecessarily jar me out of my memorized places to click, but it also just takes 2 clicks to copy a password instead of 1. Seems like a small deal but it is genuinely a bad UI.
