Same device and version. Just wanted to add DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser to the list. Same behavior as Chrome through share.
No keyboard autofill at all.

Can confirm. It would probably be useful to see what string is going into the "auto-search". I have a bunch of endpoints at home like http://portainer.local, and they work in desktop browsers but don't work in iPhone 11 Safari/Chrome/DuckDuckgo.

@eliykat great thank you. There hasn't been a release in a while, any idea when the next release will hit? I'm assuming this PR will be in it?

@rrileyca That PR was included in the March release (v 2.9.0, the same release that added Send). If you've upgraded to that version and you're still experiencing issues then maybe it's a different problem.

@eliykat Unfortunately nothing has changed for me. I'm using 2.9.1. Whether I do the Share>Bitwarden flow or I use the Passwords button in the iOS keyboard, no results are found.

@eliykat sorry correction - some of my local domain names are not being matched. It seems like the pattern is anything that ends in .local doesn't work. For example, pihole.local. Is that normal behaviour?

@rrileyca I'm not aware of any rule (or reason) that would exclude .local domains. Please report it via the form in #1389 with any updated information from your testing, and it'll be triaged for one of our devs to review. Thanks!
