I’m having issues where the auto fill is inputting the saved password into the username, and the username into the password box. I’ve tried searching for other posts with the same issue, but i haven’t been able to find anything stating the same issue. It worked normally until it randomly stopped working properly maybe within the last month.

OS: Android (Galaxy S22)
APP: Capital One Canada

Hey there, can you confirm if this is still happening with 2025.7? It may take time for this version to be available for everyone, thanks for your patience!

once i can update to the version I will let you know, currently on 2025.6.1 and don’t see any update option for it yet, still new to using BW.

sorry for the delay, still waiting for an update to show up on the playstore

It is still putting the password in the username section on .7

@Degurechaff For a given item where this happens for you: can you check if there are custom fields stored in that item that have a connection to username and password?

PS: What version of the BW mobile app do you have installed on your phone?

And general advice: please have a look into these new Android autofill settings: Important Android Autofill Updates

it’s 2025.8.0 now, when i replied it was 2025.7.1 ( just checked again and still does it) i don’t think it has any custom fields stored, i checked it and all it has is the normal user name, password and the url for the app

still having the problem, is anyone able to help?

Sorry, I’m not able to install that app in my region to test it.

update to the problem - I put the password in the username field and the username in the password field and it places them in the proper spots in the app however for some reason the app will say incorrect password but if i copy and paste the password from bitwarden it will log me in

If this is app-specific, did you report it already to the BW team: Report mobile autofill failure ?

I have not, it appears like it is specific to the app as the autofill doesn’t seem to do it to other apps, I’ve submitted one now, thank you for the link.
