Chrome does not prompt for new android 8.0 autofill

Reported by andyouts...@andyoutside.com, Sep 5 2017

Issue description

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Set Android Autofill service to Lastpass or another password manager
2. In Chrome go to a website you have saved in your password manager like logmein.com then click login
3. Maybe click in the username/password field

What is the expected behavior?
Offer to fill in username and password

What went wrong?
In username nothing came up.
In password  option to show all saved password that is for chrome.

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 63.0.3204.0  Channel: canary
OS Version: 8.0.0
Flash Version: 

I could not find any bug for this but I have to believe there is one.

Hello, any update on when this feature will hit Canary or Dev? The new autofill feature is completely hamstrung without Chrome support.

Is there a separate bug which is being used to coordinate activity which would be better to monitor than this one? Thank you.

Hi Paul, this is the bug to follow. I don't have any updates at the moment other than we are looking into it.
Thank you for the quick update. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Any news? Android's WebView already seems to work with Autofill to some degree.
Also browsers that are based on WebView (like Firefox Focus) are working with it already.

It's a little ironic that Google's own browser does not yet support this feature.

No news still?
Currently, standalone installed PWAs cannot be autofilled from LastPass at all. I believe a fix for this issue would resolve this.

It's quite a hassle if you find yourself needing to sign in to an installed PWA. Even if I tap LastPass's persistent autofill notification while a login form is visible on the PWA, I'm shown the following message: "Please scroll the browser window until the web site address is visible, then try again." With a standalone PWA, the address bar is hidden, so there's no way to autofill. I need to launch the LastPass app separately, search for the site, then manually copy/paste the user/pass combo into the PWA. This is kinda ridiculous.

If Chrome would instead prompt for autofill on its own, PWAs would be compatible with LastPass.
