Bitwarden/Vaultwarden Android clients (alien.top)

So I've seen vaultwarden and bitwarden are being preached in this subreddit a lot. Been using it for quite a long time myself. But It causes me a huge problem while registering for a service from my phone.

Normally I'd use the Client's auto password generator to auto-generate a password and save it automatically while I register for an website or service. However, the Android client of Bitwarden simply doesn't give you a save password prompt like it does on desktop or browser extensions. This drawback has created a habit of me just signing up for things from my desktop and if I'm not at home, I'll just put up a note with a link to register or sign up when I'm at my computer.

So I wanna ask, how do you guys overcome this problem? Is there another better password manager? Is there another Android client that looks into this feature?

I usually do the autofill prompt on mobile, even when I know there isn't an entry, then I create an entry in bit/vaultwarden, and use that to autofill.
