Question Is there a way to disable Samsung Pass for Google SmartLock on S22 Ultra?

[wings2004]

I was just forced (phone broke) to upgrade from my Note 10+ and the timing was such I took advantage of getting the S22 Ultra. I am liking the device so far, but it seems there is no way to use Google's SmartLock feature for autofilling passwords with the Gboard keyboard outside of Chrome. I normally use Keypass for my offline keychains but like the convenience of google, but now Samsung is forcing me to use their crap system for password management and it seems like I can't switch to Google for things like apps like I used to in the past. Is this expected behavior and is there any way to change it? I've done a bunch of digging and everyone historically has pointed to changing the auto fill settings but there is no alternative options for SmartLock in the Samsung pass settings on the device that I have been able to find.

Thanks!

Go to Settings --> General Management --> Passwords and Autofill

There should be two sections there, one for passwords, and one for autofill services.

Press and hold on the name, Samsung Pass, for 1 or 2 secs. When you release, it will go to a selection screen where you can choose Google Autofill Service.

Hope this helps, took me a while to figure it out.

You are my hero! It is completely unintuitive to get to this screen. On previous generations this was the default screen but it's buried behind a hidden damn menu? Grrrr! Thank you!

Thanks, that did the trick, it was driving me crazy after returning to Samsung after 8 years or so of other phones.

The setting on the samsung A52 s (android 13) looked like it already had google pointed as the password manager, but when I pressed the word: Samsung password manager !
it finally gave a pop-up to choose Google.

(Really press the word samsung password mamager, Not the "gear", really press the word. The gear is there for settings of the "chosen" manager)

Now it finally works as intended, thanks again!
