    How? BitWarden has great 2FA, but is also a password manager with good integrations, group sharing, etc. Plus when you log in with it, it auto-copies the 2fa to clipboard.

    Assuming you've used both, so what does Aegis bring to the table? Wondering if I should try it.

    For the same reason you usually shouldnt store 2FA in the passwordmanager.
    Besides that Aegis has some features like automated (encrypted) backups when accounts are removed/added.
    Also can use multiple different 2FA protocols (even Steam when your phone has root).
