Nonexistent Brave Android Password Manager/Autofill Support?

Brave Browser worked fine with Bitwarden, Dashlane and Keeper. Maby try for your self :slight_smile: see if it works
Vanadium is the same…

Can you please take this discussion somewhere else

For anyone following this, I’d like to report that - at least for me - it has been resolved in the latest Brave update (1.65.114) which patch notes include:

  • Upgraded to Chromium 124.
  • Registered Brave as the autofill service for addresses.
  • Added an option to disable autofill in private browsing mode.

To reiterate, I’m on a custom Android ROM and I’ve tested with multiple password managers that hadn’t worked prior to this update - no Accessibility Mode needed. :slight_smile:

I still can’t get it to work, even with the latest version. I’m using Proton Pass.

Interesting, I have tested that one and it was working - that was also on the latest version of Graphene.

Credentials appear in the keyboard auto-fill zone, however nothing appears if the password manager is currently locked (Such as after a reboot or timeout).

AH, my apologies. In my experimenting prior to this update, I had enabled a special flag in Brave - and that combined with the update seems to be what allows it to work.

In brave://flags find #enable-autofill-virtual-view-structure and there’ll be a new “Autofill Options” in the General settings that allows you to switch from Brave Autofill to Android Autofill.

Bonus: If you want PassKeys to work, you’ll need to enable #web-authentication-android-credential-management as well.

I’m running Graphene with 1Password and Brave and haven’t had any issues with autofill working.

Can’t reproduce, are you using google play services?

edit:
I finally manage to make Bitwarden autofill work in Brave without Gplay services; I had to set #enable-autofill-virtual-view-structure on enable without compatibility check.

Man I don’t know how I missed it last time but I’m glad I found it this time.
Careful reading on to do list as of now :sweat_smile:
