Safety

Where these links come from

Versions and download addresses are read automatically from winget (Windows) and Homebrew (macOS), the public package catalogues used by millions of developers. We only show a link when it points to the developer’s own official domain, and we never host, repackage or bundle the files — your browser downloads them directly from the developer.

Check the file after downloading (optional)

Compare the SHA-256 checksum shown above with the one of the file you downloaded. If they match, the file is exactly the one published by the developer.

  • Windows: open PowerShell in your Downloads folder and run Get-FileHash .\filename
  • Mac: open Terminal and run shasum -a 256 ~/Downloads/filename

Help

Bitwarden: frequently asked questions

Is this the official Bitwarden download?

Yes. The download buttons link directly to the developer’s own servers (github.com/bitwarden). DownloadFrom.net does not host, modify or bundle Bitwarden; we only list the official files and their SHA-256 checksums so you can verify them.

Which Windows file should I download?

For most PCs, choose the recommended Universal installer (.exe). Pick an ARM64 file only for Windows on ARM devices (for example Snapdragon laptops), and MSI packages if you deploy software for an organisation. To check your PC, open Settings → System → About and look at “System type”.

Is Bitwarden free?

Yes. The free plan includes unlimited passwords and devices. Premium and family/business plans are paid.

Is Bitwarden open source?

Yes. Bitwarden’s apps and server are open source and have been independently audited.

Bitwarden or KeePassXC?

Bitwarden syncs through the cloud automatically. KeePassXC keeps an offline file you manage yourself.
