Android has had an autofill feature for password managers for years now, but it's broken and needs to be fixed.

And on top of that Google's own password manager which I had deactivated managed to weasel itself into the foreground on my kid's phone. It was a pain to deactivate it again.

Never had that happen actually

No idea how it happened. I think when my wife created an account for something on there it asked to save it. And since then it intercepted every password request.

Which app do you use? In my case it's KeePass2Android (for Webdav/Nextcloud support)

Nextcloud Passwords. It works more or less like yours. Just one of the other Nextcloud Password apps didn't. Only after I switched did I realise that it could be different.
