Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/bitwarden/android/issues/6283

Steps To Reproduce

Autofill compatibility mode resolved #6107. But then it was removed as of #6191 which has resulted in a regression and the original bug filed in #6107 to resurface. Whatever changes in #6191 that were supposed to resolve the issue have actually reintroduced the problem. The "automatic" fix is not working, resulting in the same behavior described in #6107.

Expected Result

See #6107.

Actual Result

See #6107.

Another user here.

And at least on Edge, I don't see that... (the compatibility mode was mainly (only?) needed for Edge, Opera and Samsung Internet)

BTW, I would not jump to conclusions early. As I understood it, the compatibility mode is more or less on by default now (with 2025.12.0), so probably only the toggle was removed - and then, it could be a new bug and maybe is not caused by the "removal"...
