Simple Login forward aliases should not be random
Steps To Reproduce
- Create a new entry in Bitwarden
- Go into username generator
- Select forwarded email alias
- Chose SimpleLogin provider (add your API key)
- Generate the alias
Expected Result
I expect the alias to contain the domain name of the website for which I created the alias (this is how behaves the web browser extension).
For instance, let's assume I follow the steps above from the web extension and create an entry from Amazon website. Here is the kind of result I can get:
You can see "amazon" in the email adress.
I would expect the same behavior on mobile app.
Actual Result
If I do this from the Android app, I get a complete random alias, like [email protected]. This makes it harder to track which adress is linked with which website.

Additional Context
It seems in src/Core/Services/EmailForwarders/SimpleLoginForwarder.cs, you use the Simple Login API to generate a random alias.
You could instead use this POST method and pass the domain name to the alias_prefix parameter: https://github.com/simple-login/app/blob/master/docs/api.md#post-apiv3aliascustomnew

Hi there,
Thank you for your report!
I was able to reproduce this issue, and I have flagged this to our engineering team.
If you wish to add any further information/screenshots/recordings etc., please feel free to do so at any time - our engineering team will be happy to review these.
Thanks once again!
Before the browser extension update, only the mobile was broken for this. The web browser extension would correctly generate a username that held the domain name.
Now, after the UI update, the browser extension is broken the same way.
