Bitwarden Android app (lemmy.ca)

Is anyone else having insane amounts of trouble getting the bitwarden android app to autofill?

(it's explicitly selected at the default autofill app in androids settings, as well as specifically in apps where they have the options available)

It seems to be getting worse and worse; now ~80% of the time lately auto-fill absolutely REFUSES to popup AT ALL. (it was closer to 20% until recently)

Restart the app I'm using (doesn't matter which one, they are all affected), restart bitwarden, force stop everything, fully restart the device; it doesn't make a difference, bitwarden just refuses to pop up now, forcing me to copy passwords into my clipboard manually.

This has been my main barrier to going premium. It mostly doesn't work on my standard samsung S22.

Plus, don't forget to clear out the clipboard cache in the keyboard app.

That's exactly why I'm so upset about this. I don't want my passwords in my clipboard history.

Up until now, I've had some minor trouble; but usually deselecting the field you want filled and selecting it again brings up the missing autofill. That or switching apps and back.

Suddenly this morning it's completely 100% broken. I can't get ANYTHING to autofill no matter how much I try.

I just found last week another toggle control in the quick settings menu. I'm not sure if it need it or not either.

At least my pw list is accessible across my devices. That's my minimum functionality.

I was pointed in the direction of that menu: there's an 'autofill' button in there that will open the vault and ask you which item to use. This is so much better than android thinking about whether it should popup!
