iPhone → Android Fix a Problem

Why does Android sometimes fail to autofill SMS verification codes?

SMS verification-code autofill may fail if messages are delayed, app permissions are restricted, the keyboard/autofill service is disabled, or the site does not support the Android autofill mechanism.

What to do

  1. Verify the actual SMS arrived and the SIM has service.
  2. Check default SMS app, autofill settings, and keyboard permissions.
  3. Manually enter the code if suggestion does not appear.

Limits and compatibility notes

Check this before relying on the answer Never share one-time codes. Autofill is app- and website-dependent; receiving an SMS does not guarantee a suggestion.
