Bitwarden users who store their email account credentials within their Bitwarden vaults would have trouble accessing the sent codes if they are unable to log in to their email.
To prevent getting locked out of your vault, be sure you can access the email associated with your Bitwarden account so you can access the emailed codes, or turn on any form of two-step login to not be subject to this process altogether.
Is it possible to change emails on the account? I haven’t found how…
You can also register a MFA app and lock recovery codes in your PC.
This has been announced with enough time, you still have time to download another app like aegis or whatever. This is only for new logins however, you will still have access to bitwarden wherever you are already logged on.
This is the first I’m hearing of this, but, honestly, I’m all for it. I have Aegis and will add this mfa step, but needed to change email anyway and this was a great reminder of that.
It is possible here I think : https://vault.bitwarden.com/#/login
Edit: after logging in : settings -> my account (if I recall correctly)
The link to this web page is available on the app : settings -> about -> Bitwarden web vault
And this changes the username to the new email, too?
Yep so you have to “switch user” after that on computer and mobile where your old email is remembered.
Sweet! As long as I don’t lose access, I’m good. I’ve been trying to do that for a while, since I lost access to my old email (my own stupid fault), but couldn’t figure out how to do it on the app… because you can’t haha I’ll have to try that through the webapp! Thanks!
Edit: it worked! Thanks so much!
