When I open a site in Safari protected by basic access authentication (the password pop-up window) Bitwarden does not auto-suggest password based on the URL. Instead I have to search the correct password manually every time.

Bitwarden 2.2.1 on iOS 12.4.1

This is really a limitation of the autofill API provided by iOS. If we aren't given the URL for the website currently in view, we can't filter to result list.

Let's hope they fix this. It doesn't make sense not give the URL.
