I am struggling to understand why the autofill feature never detects fields or makes suggestions on mobile. I often set down my phone and go to my computer when I encounter the need to input addresses or CC. I am very close to switching to Chrome after watching a friend have no problem with Chrome Android autofill.

I too encounter the same issue with Android autofill on 3rd party browsers other than Chrome. I would suggest use another password manager such as lastpass or dashlane. They allow autofill that cover the range same like android autofill and it work much better. With the exception of an annoying constant notification on the notification bar.
