Can't create passkeys on Android browsers

[ExtendedGuru4883]

Steps To Reproduce

1. Have Bitwarden set as autofill and passkey manager, and "Android Credential Management for passkeys" chrome flag set to "Enabled for 3rd party passkeys"
2. Use a web browser to try creating a passkey on any website

Expected Result

Bitwarden pops up as passkey manager and lets you save the passkey

Actual Result

Google password manager pops up as passkey manager (example on Amazon.it)

When instead trying to use a passkey already stored in Bitwarden, you get two different behaviours:
If you also have passkey for that website on google password manager, it will pop up first but allows you to see "more passkeys", at which point Bitwarden appears


If you don't have a passkey for that website on google password manager, Bitwarden appears first

Issue Tracking Info

• I understand that work is tracked outside of Github. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.

This has been happening for me for a while now and no Chromium browsers seem to properly work (except this weird #4449), the difference is, I'm using microG (replaces Google Play Services and by extension the Google Password Manager) and it doesn't support passkeys really, so it just breaks. I have not been able to get stuff working on any browser. This worked many many months ago if not a year ago, they removed the flag and then added it back but then broken... so.. hm. I suppose this isn't a BW issue though.

I suppose this isn't a BW issue though.

I see how it could be a problem with the implementation of passkeys on Android and not with Bitwarden itself. However right now Bitwarden's support for passkeys on mobile just seems broken as it only works sometimes and in some situations, while on their website they try to present it as fully functional.

Unfortunately still the case.
