Thanks for your report. I’ve tried this on my own device and cannot reproduce this.

In addition, at the moment Bitwarden doesn't support non-standard view configurations, e.g. custom view scaling via developer mode. If that is important to you, please consider joining our community and submitting this as a suggestion directly on our feature request page to allow other members to vote for it: https://community.bitwarden.com/c/feature-requests/

If your idea resonates with the Bitwarden community, we may consider incorporating it in the future.

This issue will now be closed. Thanks!
