Can we get autofill back in Microsoft Authenticator? At least it worked well. Since the migration to edge, this feature has never worked even though it is set as the default... It recognizes when you add a password in an app, offers to save it. But it lacks the input method.

I'm going to start hunting for a real password manager in the next two weeks to resolve the issue because it's very frustrating.

The most well known fix:

Open Settings on your Samsung phone

Go to General management

Tap Passwords, passkeys & autofill

Tap Autofill with Samsung Pass / Google / None

Select Microsoft Edge

Confirm all permissions

There could be several reasons why autofill for passwords is not working on your new Samsung phone with Microsoft Edge. Here are some common issues and solutions:

Sync Settings: Ensure that you are signed in to Microsoft Edge on your phone with the same account you use on your PC. Check if sync is enabled for passwords. You can do this by going to Settings > Profiles > Sync and ensuring that the Passwords toggle is turned on.
Autofill Settings: Make sure that the autofill feature is enabled. Go to Settings > Passwords and autofill and check the settings for Microsoft Password Manager. Ensure that the option to autofill passwords is enabled.
App Permissions: Check if Microsoft Edge has the necessary permissions to access your device's autofill services. You may need to enable permissions in your phone's settings.
Browser Updates: Ensure that you have the latest version of Microsoft Edge installed on your Samsung phone. Outdated versions may have bugs that affect functionality.
InPrivate Browsing: If you are using InPrivate mode, autofill may not work as new autofill entries are not saved in this mode.

If you have checked all these settings and autofill still does not work, you may consider reinstalling the app or checking for any device-specific issues that might be affecting the functionality.
