In the eufy app, when I tap Events and select a video recording, there is a Share button. If I select it then “Share to…” I get a message “Downloading and decrypting from device 0%” that counts for 100% then the iOS share sheet appears.

My issue is that there is no longer any option for the Messages app. I have many other choices and a More button, but even there Messages is no longer an option.

Some period ago, I can’t recall whether months or years ago, Messages was an option as I shared that way several times.

Do you have Messages shown in your sharing options?

Sorry for the long and detailed post.

TLDR: Direct import from LastPass is broken if a smart quote or other 'special' characters are in the record name, username, or password fields (atleast) and Bitwarden can't even search for the badly imported records to manually fix them.

Moving a family member off LastPass and (per their family security policy to not export csv from a password manager) using the direct import feature from LastPass into a Family account Organization Vault, but not into a collection. The 1400 or so records imported without any error give, but every smart single quote (that looks like an apostrophe, but isn't) in a record name or any password that includes a bullet (•) character (at least in record names and password, I assume notes and such, but haven't checked all spots yet) changed to the characters: ⢠or a similar set of characters for bullets.

This direct import was done using the desktop application on a Macintosh.

Further note that makes this even more difficult if there isn’t a fix in the direct import (after a full record deletion I assume) is that search will not find these badly imported records. Searching for:

Dennyâ€s

returns zero results when that string is exactly what I copied from one of the records that appears to a human as, before direct import,

Denny’s AppleID

(The above is the string copied directly from the LastPass record and is one that did NOT import correct replacing the smart single quote withʉۢ.)

Has anyone hit this before and any ideas how I solve this issue? (They want to do a direct import and not export to cvs someplace and importing that. The direct import is a key feature for moving to Bitwarden.)

Does the Bitwarden direct import fail with anything other than ASCII characters? If so that is a huge fail for passwords that might have something other than straight ASCII.

In case you can’t suggest a fix for this, can anyone who is in the source code help with understanding how the search field in Bitwarden desktop Mac app works? How can I search record name. username, and password for the 3-character equivalent string to which each of these two character imported to find damaged records? (This is only a workaround if I can figure out what kinds of characters are going to fail silently in the importer and get converted into a 3- character string.)

I assume I'll have to clear the organization vault completely and redo the import, but what caused this issue and how do I solve it, or is something broken on Bitwarden's end? (I'm guessing here that the direct import has a bug and isn't escaping an input string correctly.)

Again, sorry for the long post...anyone able to help? I'd love to be able to get a whole family over to Bitwarden. (Note that I did submit this to Bitwarden support in June and last heard back in July to a ping...but no word on any fix or workaround and the Family subscription is burning through without being able to be used at all.)

This also was from the AMA and didn’t get answered. Can you answer it now?

Can you comment on the open security hole in LastPass where a Teams subscriber sharing a folder to an email address that does not yet have a LastPass account shares everything in that shared folder instead of sharing Available Only selected items? (The workflow is broken and only allows selecting which specific records within a shared folder after the user creates their account. If the user does not have an account and then creates the account, they see everything in the folder until you then change them to Available Only and only then are you able to restrict to specific records.)

Per LastPass support, there is an internal product enhancement request associated with this behavior. The reference ID is PE‑1388.

This was from the AMA and didn’t get answered. Can you answer it now?

If I lose access to my email, but still have my correct vault password and MFA device/app, what is the thinking around LastPass then not allowing a person to log into their account?

(From what I’ve seen, an initial login on a new device requires a confirmation link in a email to the registered email address…but if you have that email password inside LastPass you are unable to access your account. Why build a system that doesn’t allow access with just the vault email/password and correct MFA response? Or is this no longer/not the case? I don’t think I was recently asked to confirm any email when I setup a totally new laptop a few days ago using my credentials and MFA, which would be good and as I’m like it.)
