Hi @salmanpy444,

I recommend you start with a fresh installation. Please uninstall Bitwarden off your Android device, turn your device off and back on, reinstall Bitwarden from the Google Play Store, activate all your autofill services like so: https://bitwarden.com/help/article/auto-fill-android/ and then activate biometrics like so: https://bitwarden.com/help/article/biometrics/ and let me know if that changes anything.
If you continue to encounter any trouble, please create a new support ticket via our Contact form: https://bitwarden.com/contact/ and we'll continue assisting you with this via that ticket.

I hope you find this clear and helpful, and I thank you in advance for your understanding.
