Multi-Page Login: Auto-Fill Password on Second Page After Username Entry
Many websites, like Google, split their login process into two pages: one for the username/email and another for the password. Currently, when using ProtonPass, we need to manually select our login item on both pages, which feels a bit redundant and inconvenient.
With 1Password, once you select your login on the username/email page, it automatically fills in the password on the subsequent page without any additional input.
This feature significantly enhances user experience by providing a smoother, quicker login process. It would be fantastic if ProtonPass could implement a similar streamlined multi-page login auto-fill functionality!

Actually, it works. There are just websites where it doesn't work. Perhaps you could add a function like the one available in the KeePass XC extension for the browser. Here you can mark the input fields as “username” or “password” and also “OTP” if that is not recognized automatically.

On https://orcid.org/ autofill works for username and password. However, A2F is not detected and A2F autofill not proposed

By implementing an automatic click after credentials are filled in by Proton Pass, similar to other password management applications, you would speed up the login process by avoiding additional clicks by the user.

I'd like to add that in addition to autofilling both the username and password across multi-page logins, I’d love to see Proton Pass go one step further—by automatically submitting the login form without requiring any additional clicks. Right now, even when both fields are filled, I still have to manually click "Login." 1Password handles this seamlessly, and it really speeds things up. It would be great if Proton Pass could match that experience.

Same problem here.
For webpages has a two-step signin block that separates the username and password into two pages, there is friction existing.
Some common website that has two page sign in AND CURRENTLY NOT ACCOMMODATED:
- Google Account
- Apple Account
- Microsoft (Personal) AccountProton should look into this and build a data base to handle these types of situation. I would suggest to have an ACTIVELY MANAGED DATABASE OR FEEDBACK POOL that allows users to contribute and report the webpage concerned.

My page was « merged » with this one, but I don’t think that it’s really exactly the same problem.

Currently, when logging into a website using the Proton Pass browser extension, if the URL of the website does not exactly match any of the existing "website" entries in a saved login, the extension prompts the user to save it as a new login. However, this creates a duplicate entry with the same username/email and password but a different website URL. Since Proton Pass doesn’t currently support merging login entries, this leads to unnecessary clutter and confusion.
Suggestion:
Please consider adding a feature such as an "Add website to existing login" button in the save prompt. This would allow users to associate the new website with an existing login entry (ideally by matching existing entries with the same username/email), rather than creating a new one.This small addition would significantly improve the user experience and keep vaults organized by preventing redundant entries.

The separation of username and password into separate steps/pages is a pain. Some sites will use async code to reveal the password box on the same page. This works with Proton Pass. But the navigation to another page seems to break it (sometimes) whereby Proton Pass thinks it's a password reset and auto-fills with a newly generated password.

This is driving me crazy too. Please improve the autofill. As a 1P user, I miss it.

and improve the detection of login and password fields of Proton Pass extensions and applications.
Autofill with extensions and applications often does not work. The use is often complicated.
Especially if you have several identifiers for the same site.
I did not have this problem with Bitwarden and selecting an identifier was simpler. -

Also in the same bucket, when you use an alias email on the first page and then generate a password on the next, you need to copy the password and create login manually as Proton Pass will not remember the password it generated. This is pain in the hoop and I had to reset my passwords many times because there's no way to retrieve it once it's generated and the next page loads...

I also noticed that autofill will simply not work on iOS for the username when this happens, I have to manually type it, it then works on the password (second screen.)

On android, if it cannot be scripted to fill the password automatically, a notification allowing the username/password/TOTP to be copied (similar to Dashlane) would be highly beneficial.

Bonjour,
Étant utilisateurs de « Password Manager » de Norton et du gestionnaire de « Mot de passe » d’Apple, il peut-être frustrant par moment de ne pas voir Proton Pass interagir avec certains sites.
Tandis que Norton et Apple vont proposer les logins et les mots de passe sans aucuns soucis et systématiquement, Proton Pass restera muet; Sont concernés les logins, les mots de passe et les codes A2F.
Ce qui me contraint à activer systématiquement l’un des deux gestionnaire (NORTON, APPLE), voir même les deux, en plus de Proton Pass pour de garantir des remplissages plus rapide. -

Indeed I want to switch from dashlane which prefills the username and password in the form fields and auto logins for me and am missing that feature in proton pass.

1Password has the ability to manage 2 page logins, where you put in your username, then a second page shows up for the password input. Proton Pass not only doesn't autofill the password section on the second page, it won't even suggest an already stored password, rather it keeps suggesting that I make a new password.
Proton Pass should have support for multi-page logins.
