Apps installed outside google store have accesibility disabled by default

From the system >apps > bitwarden > from that app info page, on the top right corner , tap on the 3 dots and tap on "allow restricted settings" now you can enable accessibility for bitwarden

We are not planning to implement the accessibility service in the upcoming native apps. As a result, I will close this issue.
