Is there a simple app that can transfer everything easily? Like my favorites, browsing history and everything, including autofill setting and whatnot? I really just don't want to redo everything and essentially start fresh.

Edit*

Thank you everyone! I've used chrome for so long and the last time I tried fire fox over 13 years ago it didn't auto transfer anything, so I had no idea. And I will look into a 3rd party for password storage.

I'm not super savy with some things, so I don't really know what you mean by "self hosting" but I guess I'll look into that too.

Again thanks! Looks like I will make the switch!

That's odd to hear! I certainly believe it, because I've had this issue with other password managers in the past - but I haven't come across this with Bitwarden on desktop. Mobile however, I definitely get issues where it won't prompt the autofill button on the keyboard, sometimes tapping the password field will cause it to realize its there, other times I have to use the quick settings tile to autofill.

You might be able to workaround the problematic sites though using their custom fields attributes for logins.
