Hi @jdpottle ,

I attempted to reproduce your issue and was unable to do so. I think your error could have its origin in a misconfiguration. Please perform a clean re-install, and then setup autofill again on your device from scratch using the guides here:

I am also having this issue on Android 14 beta and Chrome. None of the bitwarden buttons do anything in Chrome on Android 14. Works fine in Firefox and other apps.

Edit: turning on accessibility and draw-over seems to be a workaround.

Can confirm this in Android 14. Turning "Allow display over other apps" make autofill work again.
