No support for password Android Autofill API? (3.0, Enpass)

[lbit]

Same here. Lastpass states it supports "Android autofill framework" APIs (e.g. https://blog.lastpass.com/2018/03/lastpass-featured-googles-autofill-app-choice-android-oreo/), and indeed it works with Chrome or other chromium-based browsers like Edge with no extension needed. But NOT Vivaldi.

Vivaldi is the only browser that password autofill don't works. Please fix that. It can be a great browser

[gbguy71]

Bitwarden's article on Autofill, explains the different types of Autofill available by Android release, how to enable and test.

From that article
Android has many web browsers. It can be hard to keep up with them all. We have to add support for each browser individually.

If auto-fill does not work on your browser, please report it at https://github.com/bitwarden/mobile/issues so that we can add support.

And Vivaldi browser still does not support the Android Autofill API....
Vivaldi should take responsibility and stop depending on the password managers to come up with awkward workarounds like Accessibility services.

(I'm writing this from within the Microsoft Edge browser which, I am sad to say, is gradually becoming my daily mobile engine just because)

Just chiming in here, and wondering if there has been any updates/feedback on this? We're coming up on the 1 year anniversary of this thread. It certainly is a feature thats sorely missing, and depending on usage it ends up getting quite annoying over time.

It's not fixed yet,

But if you want to use the work around it works well enough to use.

Just disable "Android Autofill Service" and enable "Autofill Using Accessibility" and "Enpass Keyboard"

When using both of these if the Accessibility service doesn't work right away change the keyboard to Enpass and click "tap to fill" and search for your login.

The Accessibility service will work when you come to a login feature a pop up say "Autofill with Enpass" will pop up, tap it and a another widow shows up giving you options to chose to login with. click the one you want or search for it and it will autofill the login data.

I use 1Password and it doesn't work with Vivaldi on Android.

I want to love the browser, and I'm do, but I need autofill as the company I work for just changed and the new company has us log in through our phones.

Without autofill, it's going to be a massive pain to have to log into 1Password, copy my log in info, go back to Vivaldi and paste it.

As a result of Vivaldi not supporting autofill with 1Password yet, I'm going to have to move to another browser. As soon as Vivaldi supports autofill, I'm switching back though, as I really like the browser on both desktop and Android.

Here's hoping it happens soon.,

[tiritibambix]

This takes too long. I'm moving to another browser

[willitbewrong]

This has become absolutely ridiculous. I've been using a mix of Brave and Firefox, and they work great. Highly recommend both of them of you want a browser that works.

Hello @Gwen-Dragon

Do you have any updates on this Android issue please?

It seems something has been released a few months ago, but it doesn't solve properly the issue for many people (including me with Dashlane).

What is the status?

Thank you for your help!

[jimger]

@Gwen-Dragon Why is it that hard? That's very strange. I am kinda stuck on chrome because of that (I use 1Password)

Do not ask me, i am not a Google or Vivaldi developer.

Oh Ok, since u are moderator I thought you knew why is that. Literally I can't figure out why they are not implementing the Autofill API. And also 1Password doesn't want either on "legacy" mode that they used to have before autofill

Hi,

Do you save them then in V? (With exceptions)

You could Import them to the Desktop version, enable Sync and will be on the rest of Sync'ed Devices.

For those more sensitive, use the External PassManager despite the Extra Steps.

that's not a very handy solution. If you use a paid password manager, you don't want to use another not-so-synced password manager (because with every changed password, you have to alter and sync the other ones too), wether it's the internal one or a third application (a third one, really??)

I know, that the problem is (or was) with an "activation" of vivaldi from google side, but I don't find the right thread

[Zalex108]

@derDay

Well,
If you changes the Passwords and / or add new ones so often it's cumbersome.
The V Sync it's so comfortable, even more for devices without keyboard like Android Tvs.

The flow here it's:

• Added to V the most common Passwords through .CSV Import
  +
• KeePass
  • Drop Box ♺
    • CKP Browser Extension
    • KeePass2Android Android App

Any added to V is Exported periodically or added manually within few days.
Also, here isn't common to change them often.

But off course, it's better also to be able to communicate with any PassManager fluidly.

I can't use Bitwarden, i'm forced to use the draw over / old method which is slightly clunky, but at least it works with Vivaldi. Would be nice to have the autofill API added to the Android app

We have some good news! We believe we've found a solution to the password manager compatibility issue. Please check out today's Snapshot and test if your password manager works with that Vivaldi version. In case you encounter any bugs, please report them directly on https://vivaldi.com/bugreport/.

For me it's working fine. I tried eBay and Facebook and it works very well. I'm using Keepass2Android.
