Question Contact auto fill like iOS?

[Matthew Hawley]

I've been on iPhone a few years and trying to switch back to Android. I got a S25 Ultra. The only thing that is really annoying is Android doesn't seem to have a contact auto fill like iOS does? I can't fill in forms automatically with my name, address, phone number. I'm hoping it's not browser specific. I really want a system wide contact auto fill.

Am I missing something?

No. Android doesn't have the same sort of system wide autofill service that iOS does unfortunately. It's more siloed. You can enable Autofill by Google by just going to Settings and searching for Autofill and filling out your info through those settings but that's browser and app dependant. Samsung has also the same thing, in Samsung Wallet where you can enable Autofill. But again, browser and app dependant. Another way around it would be to use a 3rd party Password manager, as they all largely offer autofill services.

That's unfortunate. I'll play around with it. Thank you!
