Bitwarden Rewrites Android/iOS Clients with Modern Language, Releases Beta Version

TapTechNews June 20 news, the open source password manager Bitwarden announced in March this year to eliminate the Microsoft Xamarin framework and rewrite the Android / iOS client in a modern language; today this application arrives in the Beta version and the official has invited users to participate in the test.

The founder and chief technology officer of Bitwarden, Kyle Spearin, said that after recompiling with a modern language, it can not only improve performance, but also provide users with more cutting-edge functions and deeply integrate local hardware functions to achieve a safer usage environment.

Bitwarden said that it has begun to roll out the Beta test version in stages, and then new functions and optimizations will be introduced in each stage. TapTechNews attached the main advantages of the new version of Bitwarden as follows:

More smooth user interface, faster screen switching and button response, further improve the running performance

A user interface tailored specifically for the mobile platform is more fluid and responsive

The user experience is more in line with the system experience, allowing users to interact with the application using behaviors they are already familiar with

The application can access the integrated security features of a specific platform, so the security and privacy can be fully enhanced

Bitwarden also announced the four stages of future development:

First stage: Public beta of iOS and Android versions of the application

Second stage: Supporting Passkey

Third stage: Official release

Fourth stage: Subsequent maintenance and updates
