I've switched from iOS to Android, and have found the 1Password experience to be much harder to use on Android :(

I did some testing with the Chargepoint and Babylist apps. I was able to consistently fill in the Chargepoint app. If you're not seeing a prompt from 1Password after tapping the email field, you can try "forcing" Autofill:
1. Tap a sign-in field to open the keyboard.
2. Long press the sign in field.
3. Tap Autofill or ⋮ > Autofill in the context menu (where you might normally see copy/paste).
After selecting "Autofill" a prompt from 1Password should appear allowing you to fill as expected.
With Babylist, I only saw a response from 1Password in the password field. Selecting that prompt allowed me to fill a password but not an email. I've gone ahead and reported that to the team here.
For the email field, you can type it in, copy and paste, or use split screen mode to drag and drop your email.
I've previously done some testing with the MyChart app and website. Due to how it's structured, with multiple organization's sign in portals, it can be quite challenging to fill consistently. My apologies for the trouble here. If you'd like to share the organization that you sign into via MyChart, I'd be happy to take a look and report any issues to the team.
This is unfortunately less seamless than the iOS experience
Many iOS apps include associated domains which allows 1Password for iOS to reliably link to an app that has claimed the associated URL. Android apps do not include the same feature, so this is not a service we can currently provide.
Thanks again!
