Autofill doesn't work in Brave but in Chrome on the same device

Hi,
I'm using the Brave browser (v1.34.80) on a Sony Xperia (G8441) with Android 9 (v47.2.A.11.228) and I can't get the Autofill to work. I've setup the Autofill, Accessibility and Autofill preview and in Brave I've turned of password saving and initiate session automatically. The strange thing is that if I use Chrome (v97.0.4692.87) it works, but not in Brave.

Hi,

Now I've played around a little and it seems like it works if I disable Autofill and enable Accessibility. Both Brave and Chrome works (Auto sign-in and Save password disabled), and also apps like Spotify and others. One that doesn't work is ViewClix (https://viewclix.com/) which only fills the user name, not the password.

Thanks for checking that, @jonashilmersson. Ideally, you would be able to fill with Autofill on your device. Were you able to fill in Chrome and Brave with just Autofill enabled? Also, do you have the latest versions of Brave and 1Password installed at this point?

It doesn't work if I change to only use Autofill instead. I have the latest version of both Brave and 1Password from what I can see.

Thanks for following up with me, @jonashilmersson. This may be an issue with how Autofill is implemented in Chromium, and I've reported it to our development to look into. ref: dev/android/onepassword-android#841
