Currently, the browser extension shows these inline options when the Tab or Vault option is selected:

However, the right-most icon doesn't bring value to me as a user. Additionally, the auto-fill option under the 'Tab' view is hidden behind the 'View' option.

Proposed solution: Remove the right-most clock icon which remains mostly disabled and replace it with an 'Auto-Fill' icon for the user. An alternate solution would be to open a List popover by clicking the 'Key icon' and provide the user with an option to copy or fill.

I am willing to contribute by working with the internal UX team and working on mockups for the same (if someone can share UX contribution guidelines).

@tanveermahendra, I think you might be on point to some degree with this suggestion however, since I, for one frequently use the Clock Button [Two Factor Authentication], I would like to suggest an augmentation to your recommendation. Wherein instead of suggesting the all-out removal of the TFA[Clock] button to only show it when it's available.

My main gripe is that BitWarden's extension is simply just not giving me the ability to choose to auto-fill a specific website via the search function. Even if the pattern matches the URL.

Hi @Leopere and @tanveermahendra! Thanks for reaching out.

Currently, if you search for for a vault item in the browser extension, click on the desired search result, there is an "Auto-Fill" or "Auto-Fill and Save" option you can select to fill that data into the webpage you are on. I will attach a screenshot at the bottom of this response.
