Autofill your logins on Android and iPhone

Turning it on on Android

1. Open Settings in DroidPass. Unlock the app and open Settings from the menu.
2. Tap Autofill. The screen explains what autofill does and gives you a switch.
3. Choose DroidPass when Android asks which autofill service to use.
4. Sign in anywhere. Tap a username or password field, tap "Autofill with DroidPass" on the keyboard, unlock, and the login fills.

That is all of it. Android runs one autofill service at a time, so picking DroidPass replaces whatever was filling your logins before, and you can switch back from the same screen whenever you want.

Turning it on on iPhone and iPad

Autofill came to iPhone and iPad in DroidPass 1.6.4. The one difference from Android is that iOS never lets an app switch itself on, so you enable DroidPass yourself, once:

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad, not DroidPass.
2. Tap General, then AutoFill & Passwords.
3. Turn on DroidPass in the list of providers.
4. Sign in anywhere. Tap a login field in Safari or any app and your matching logins appear just above the keyboard.

DroidPass asks for Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode before it fills anything, every time. If nothing is offered, open DroidPass and unlock your vault once: autofill has nothing to suggest while the vault is still locked. Autofill on iOS needs version 15.5 or newer.

The same applies on an Apple silicon Mac, where DroidPass fills logins in Safari. See how to turn on AutoFill on Mac for the steps.

What autofill does for you

• It fills logins in other apps and browsers. The suggestion shows up on your keyboard as soon as you tap a username or password field, so you never leave the app you are in.
• It handles your two-factor code as well. If the form has a one-time-code field, DroidPass fills it along with the password. If the code is asked for on a later screen, DroidPass copies the current code to your clipboard so it is ready to paste.
• It saves logins you type. Sign in somewhere the old way and Android offers to keep that login in DroidPass, so the vault fills up as you go instead of you retyping everything.
• It suggests a strong password when you sign up. On a registration form DroidPass can generate a long random password and save it in the same step, so new accounts start out secure.
• It asks rather than guesses. When DroidPass is sure which account a screen belongs to it fills that one directly. When it is not sure it shows your matching logins and lets you pick, instead of putting the wrong password into the wrong app.

Does it work in browsers?

Autofill works in browsers that support the Android autofill framework. Samsung Internet, Microsoft Edge and Brave fill without any extra setup.

Chrome needs one extra step, because it prefers its own password manager by default. Open Chrome, go to Settings, then Autofill services, choose "Autofill using another service", and restart Chrome. The DroidPass suggestion then appears on web forms the same way it does in apps.

Firefox does not support third-party autofill services on Android at all. That is a Firefox limitation rather than a DroidPass one, and it means no password manager can fill there. You will have to copy and paste from the vault.

Is autofill safe?

Autofill never opens your vault by itself. When you tap the suggestion, DroidPass asks for your Master PIN or your fingerprint before filling anything, and it relocks on the same timer the app uses. The vault stays AES-256 encrypted on the device throughout.

Matching errs on the side of asking. DroidPass fills a login straight away only when it is sure the screen belongs to that account, meaning an app it has been linked to or a website whose domain matches. Anything less certain becomes a list you pick from, so a password for one site never gets typed into another without you seeing it.
