I like Samsung Pass which I can login to both android apps & websites
It seems other password manager can only login to websites and not apps
Is this correct?
or am just missing how to login using other password manager to android apps?
BitWarden and LastPass can fill apps too. Depending on various aspects, they are not 100% accurate (sometimes you might have to search for the app manually).
I use Dashlane on PC and Phone. On Android password apps can use the auto-fill feature of the keyboard. Except in Samsung Browser and Keyboard, it seems Samsung is only allowing their own password app.

This started happening after I went to CyanogenMod a couple of months back, but it's still happening with 4.2.13. Some of my Android apps refuse to authenticate even after I check login credentials and verify that they work fine on the desktop. Some examples of apps that always fail:
PayPal
Personal Assistant
GetItDone (a beta app)
Some examples of apps that have no problem ever:
Pandora
Last.fm
Facebook
Seesmic
Evernote
all Google apps
On #cyanogenmod, someone suggested there was an issue with APN settings, but I think he misunderstood me. My phone itself is fully authenticated with Google.
never mind
I use the HTC keyboard and I find that it almost systematically inserts a space every time I type a period. This screwed up my username wherever it was my e-mail address.
My Note is able to browse Internet only using the default Internet browser.
With Doplphin HD, Opera Mobile, Opera Mini and Firefox, whatever URL I write, I get the error "web page unavailable".
Same URL in Internet default browser works.
More, I'm able to access to the market, Samsung Apps, Best Apps, GetJar and Amazon App Store, update almostall wether forecasts, download file, emails ect.
Accounts synchronization work for all accounts except for the social hub ones.
Apps like Facebook, Twitter, FriendCaster, Google Maps, Earth and almost all that need an Internet access, work without problem.
I think one of the apps I've installed in these days is the cause.
May be Set DNS, but uninstalling it dind't solve the problem.
Any idea?
I've found my self the reason.
The problem was, as I suspected, set DNS app.
The "normal" uninstalling (settings->manage applications->uninstall) doesn't remove all changes made by the app.
To uninstall it (and changes made) needs to use the uninstall button that appears pressing the menu button while in the app.
So I have a Galaxy Note 5 that I like but occasionally had issues with, and while meandering around my Google account, noticed Google Authenticator was listed as an installed app on the Play Store. This app have have been the trigger for conflict with other authentication software on the phone, so I checked the phone for Google Authenticator, no go. Puzzled, I installed Authenticator with the sole purpose of removing it, which I did, then removed Authenticator from Play Store list but did not "uninstall it" or turn off two-step.
I do a wipe, the phone asked for my originally synched email, password............then 6-digit token . With no way to log in to the account, I can't access the app, etc., this loop is impossible to bypass.
I submitted a recovery request for the email address but my understanding is the recovery chances are slim. Why I am posting this is because I am trying to determine the best course for the actual hardware. After two hours with Samsung/Google/Verizon on the phone, I ultimately have Samsung agreeing to remove the Device Protection Lock so I can use the phone with a different email (or sell it).
Any practical suggestions to bypass the Device Protection Lock before I pack this phone up?

Easily.. Wipe it with twrp
Is anyone on here familiar with bitwarden? I just recently imported over 50 different passwords and logins into the app. And I was able to use my face unlock to secure it.
Maybe I read this incorrectly, but I heard somewhere on Reddit that you can use face unlock to bypass the auto-fill.
So for example, when using a bank app that doesn't support face unlock instead of autofill you can substitute it with face unlock through bitwarden. Is that correct or is there a way to do that? Scotiabank does support face unlock so that's been great but TD Bank does not. And I was hoping I could use this bitwarden trick to make use of the face unlock.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Not sure what you mean by "bypass autofill", but Bitwarden works great for this (so does LastPass, BTW).
When you open your banking (or whatever...) app, just tap in the username or password field. You should see a prompt to "autofill with Bitwarden"; tap that. Then assuming you've set up Bitwarden face unlock, you'll be able to unlock the vault with your face and Bitwarden will show you the list of matching logins; just tap one and it will autofill the username/password.
Some one-time setup for each login might be needed, in particular if the URI saved in Bitwarden is the website URL and android app's package name does not match the website. In those cases, choose "autofill and save" to remember the association after searching for the login.

Thank you for your response, I really appreciate it. What I meant by bypass was essentially when the pop up to autofill shows up. I was hoping to click on the pop up and then it would go to the face unlock once that was done it would automatically input the information and log me in I was hoping to avoid that other step of having to find the correct login in the vault. Is there a way to do that?
Because with Scotiabank supporting face recognition all I have to do when I open the app is click on use face unlock and it just prompted in automatically unlocks my banking app. sometimes I don't even have to push a button the face unlock automatically shows up when the app is opened.

It's not as seamless as when app the app supports face unlock directly. But it should still only be one or two taps. There are three possible scenarios:
If the login is not yet associated with the app: you'll have to search for the login, or it may pop up as a suggestion. This should only happen once; after you choose "Yes, and Save", the association will be saved
After the login is associated, if your vault is locked at the moment: two taps: first tap to "go to my vault", which will do the face recognition, second tap will be on the associated login which will automatically pop up
After the login is associated, if your vault is unlocked at the moment (e.g. because you just used it a few minutes ago): one tap: the name of the login will pop up by the username/password field with Android's autofill support, you just need to tap it.
Every other time I open firefox, it "forgets" all of my personal settings.
Specifically,
1. It won't recognize my firefox account.
2. My addons are disabled
3. My active logins are forgotten (I am not logged into websites and my passwords aren't available)
Closing out my my browser then re-opening 1-2 times gets it to work correctly.
I can't be the only person to experience this but I didn't see any threads on it.
Anyone got a suggestion?
Did you give it storage permission? Pull it up in Settings/apps and take a look.
Yes it has permissions.
