Tap OK, choose +HardenedPass in Android's autofill settings and confirm. + +## What each browser can do + +The app only trusts browsers it knows, because a browser has to report honestly which +site a form belongs to. A browser that is not on the list gets no autofill at all. + +| Support level | Meaning | Examples | +|---|---|---| +| **Fill and save credentials** | Fills username and password, offers to save new ones | Firefox | +| **Fill and save passwords** | Same, but saving needs no accessibility services enabled | Chrome, Cromite | +| **Fill credentials** | Fills username and password, no saving | Tor Browser | +| **Fill passwords** | Fills the password only | Vanadium | +| **No support** | Autofill stays off | Any browser not on the list | + +Vanadium, the browser that comes with GrapheneOS, is trusted, but only at the +**Fill passwords** level. For full support on GrapheneOS, use Firefox. The dialog in +Settings shows the real level for the browsers on your phone. + +## Fill a login + +Tap a login field. Depending on your keyboard, suggestions appear as chips in the +keyboard's bar or as a dropdown under the field: + +- An entry already linked to this site or app shows up by name. Tap it, unlock with + your passphrase and the form is filled. +- **Search entry** opens a search over your store. The entry you choose stays linked + to this site or app, so next time it shows up directly. +- On forms that ask for a new password, such as sign-up pages, **Create entry** opens + the editor to make one for this login. + +## Save a new login + +In a browser that supports saving, log in as usual. Android offers to save to +HardenedPass. Tap **Save** and the app opens its editor, with the username and password +filled in. Save the entry there, then remember to +[sync]({{< relref "/hardenedpass/using/sync" >}}). + +Firefox also shows its own save prompt. That one is Firefox's password manager, not +HardenedPass, and you can dismiss it. + +## The phishing warning + +Fill suggestions are tied to the app that requested them. If an app you linked to an +entry changes publisher, its signing certificate no longer matches, and you see +**Possible phishing attempt** instead of your entry. Tap it for the details. + +The app may have changed hands legitimately, but it may also be a fake installed in +place of the real one, trying to get your password. **Keep Autofill disabled** is the +safe answer. Choose **Re-enable Autofill** only if you know why the publisher changed. |
