Really frustrating. I used to be able to fill the login data in the Samsung Browser (best android browser IMHO) from my Google Auto fill services. However, with the last update this option has been removed. The browser is forcing me to use Samsung Pass instead. 

Come on, give us options! Why break a feature that was working perfectly fine?

It might be more secure using Samsung Pass since it is protected by Samsung Knox. Not sure if the Google auto fill feature would have been as secure. Maybe that's why they got rid of it and replaced with Samsung Pass?

That might be true. However, at the end of the day, I, as a user, want to have an opportunity to select the service that I use regardless of what Samsung thinks.

I used the Google Auto fill for years with no issues. I had it synced with my computer's browser. With the ever going password complexity madness, every single website now wants to have an absurdly difficult password. The only way to keep up is to use the password manager. Samsung pass doesn't sync to chrome on Windows, therefore the extra security comes at a cost of convenience.

Remember that 3rd party secure apps usually don't work well or at all while using beta firmware. This could be the case with auto fill feature.

Proton Pass is not working with Samsung Internet either. Probably due to One UI being in beta, as Ekamek mentioned.

Checked this out on S22+ One UI 6.1.1. Not working either.

Hmm... Proton Pass works on my Galaxy Tab S9+ running 6.1.1 along with Samsung Internet. It also works on One UI 7 beta on my Fold 6 with the browsers Chrome and Arc. So it seems to be a bug limited to Samsung Internet for some of us?

That's interesting. Google fill is working everywhere on fold 6 beta except for Samsung Internet as well.
