When i need credentials for a login page, after copying the password, i need four "clicks" to navigate back to the tab with login page with fenix. In the case i need username too, the way doubles even to eight "klicks" plus before that, i have to use eight clicks to open the password credentials page again, search again for the login page within it. This is too laborious.

With fennec, after copying the password, i just need two "clicks" to navigate to the tab with login site. if i need user name too, i just have to "click" three times back to the already opened password credentials tab, copy the username and to go back to the tab with login page,. This is much shorter.

Pls revert to fennec behaviour cause it is much more ergonomic.

We could possibly improve the experience here by adding a close button on the display login screen so you could quickly get back to the browser (if UX agrees)

Also interesting to you might be #5551

This would be an improvement. But it would be more ergonomic to keep the logins open in a tab to switch between page and credentials, like it is with fennec.

Thanks for the hint to #5551. In fact i also considered to opend a bug for the same problem thats already opened under the link you gave: that fenix cant offer a dropdown menu in cases, if there are more than one account for a website available in fenix database. This functionality obviously should be a must have like for ergonomic reasons it is already working in desktop firefox.

What is even more weird is, that unlike desktop firefox, fenix and fennec arent reliable dewtecting the right login for the site, even if there is only a single login credential stored in its database, and therefore forcing the user to navigate to its credentials manually, to search the login and the password manually like i described above. Desktop firefox already detects a login credential, if its connected to the same domain. I wonder why is that reliable working with desktop firefox while it is not with fenix and fennec? I wonder if the detection algorythm is different for fenix and for PC firefox? On mobile firefox login detection should be working as reliable as it is the case with desktop firefox.

@ekager We can change the copy url action to open in browser instead (See screenshot)

Also can you update the "copy" icon and use the "open in browser" icon below? Thanks

Verified that the "copy" icon is replaced with the "open in browser" icon on the 7/10 Nightly build with Google Pixel (Android 10), and Sony Xperia Z5 Premium (Android 7.1.1).
Tapping on the "open in browser" icon redirects the user to the page where the credentials are auto-filled.
