It has asked me lots of times, but just yesterday it didn't for a new account in none less than google.com. Its code to detect when to ask must be... weak, to say the least.
So I went on to add a new entry manually. Oh my, the UX to do so is quite bad. There is such low hanging fruit here for improvement, like copying the "UI on a new tab" style that LastPass does... meanwhile Bitwarden insists on doing everything on a stateless pop-up window [0]. LastPass UI might be worse for some (that's debatable), but the UX of opening it on a new tab is simply superior, just for the fact of it being stateful. I don't get why Bitwarden doesn't adopt it.
I'm happily paying for Bitwarden to support its development, but would never consider suggesting it to my grandpa or to serious business. The flow and experience is just far away from what is expected; a very good software, but with still too many rough edges.
