Autofill in Android

With autofill, the credentials are transferred from the Netwrix Password Secure app directly to the login screens. This works for websites in the browser as well as for other apps.

Requirements​

For automatic registration, the service must be enabled in the User Help¹ and Show via other apps¹ Netwrix Password Secure App must be enabled.

Autofill​

The login data is entered as soon as the app finds a corresponding mask on a web page or in an app. In some masks the process starts automatically, in others it is necessary to type in the first field.

There are two possible scenarios.

  • The Netwrix Password Secure app displays all matching passwords. The user selects the desired password and the app enters it.
  • Selection of a password in the Netwrix Password Secure App. This dialog opens automatically if no password is found.

No password found

If no password is found that matches the app or the website called up, the desired password must first be selected.

Exactly one password found

If there is a data set that contains exactly the URL that is called up, the corresponding password can be suggested. A simple click on the password is then sufficient to pass the data to the website or app.

Multiple passwords found

If several matching passwords are found in the database, the desired one must be selected.

NOTE: Depending on the current state, it may be necessary to authenticate on the app before selecting or confirming the password to be entered. The database then has to be unlocked via the password or Touch ID first.
