Great alternative to the now defunct FireFox Send. Only downside is there is a 100MB limit, to sending files but apart from that, I have no other issues.

Bitwarden is my go-to password manager and I welcome new features. That said, this is not the most generous encrypted file sharing service out there by a long shot, so my rating is more in acknowledgment of Bitwarden as a whole package.

What is Bitwarden Send?

Bitwarden Send is a lightweight utility used to share information with another person for a limited period of time. Bitwarden users can easily transmit a file or text, and rest easy knowing the sent information is protected with end-to-end encryption, and will not live forever. Users choose an expiration date for the Send link, after which it no longer works to access the information.

This new feature is available on all Bitwarden clients: Web Vault, mobile, browser extensions, and CLI, meaning users will always have a secure way to share sensitive information temporarily. The Command Line Interface also provides a wide range of programmatic options to integrate with existing workflows.

There are dozens of use cases for this type of secure direct sharing:

Passwords Financial documents Identification documents Legal documents Client data Code And more

Send emphasizes best practices for sharing sensitive information and empowers users to take responsibility for protecting their data online.

Transmit securely: Information shared is end-to-end AES-256 bit encrypted and can be 100% hidden from third-party applications with the addition of a password.

Limit exposure: Users can set expiration dates and access limits for shared information, reducing the risk of unintentional data leaks.

Share text and files: Bitwarden Premium users can use Send to share any type of information, like passwords, documents, credentials, and more. Bitwarden users with a free account have access to Send for text information only.

Maintain confidentiality: Avoid exposing shared information to intermediary systems or people. The Send is created and only accessible via a secure link. It can be password protected for added security.

Receive text and files: A Bitwarden Send secure link can be generated and sent to any online user, whether the link recipient is an existing Bitwarden user or not.
