Have you ever created an online account using a mobile browser? Well, if so, you must be well aware of the problems that one can face when filling out all the fields of a web form on a screen of only 4 inches and an even smaller keyboard. I usually skip the task on my phone and wait in front of the computer. It’s easier to fill in all the information, including address, organization, and create an account on your PC.

But no matter how far you try to run, these things always catch up to you one day. And when they do, it can be a real pain. So to ease your workload while filling out these web forms online, you can get help from Android browsers and apps where you can save all your different identities, then fill in information on any website with just one tap.
You can save 130 keystrokes on average And 4 minutes while autofilling these forms on Android, but you’ll have peace of mind that everything is error-free and automatic is priceless.
Let’s see how we can get these features on Chrome and Firefox.
Autofill forms on Chrome
Chrome comes with autofill on both Android and desktop browsers, and if you sync them, you’re good to go. You can open the Chrome browser on your desktop and create a personal identity. These personal identities are then used to fill out web forms. To create a new personal identity, open Chrome settings and find the option Password and form. Here click on the option that says, Manage autofill settings. If you are using the Chrome browser, click this link to open the settings directly.
Here you can create new profiles and even save credit card information for shopping sites. Click Add a new street address to enter data. Any changes you make to the desktop will be synced to the browser. However, if you want to save your profile directly on your Android’s Chrome browser, open the browser settings and navigate to Autofill form.
That’s all, create your profile and save the settings. The next time you visit a website that requires a form to be filled out, the browser will recognize the moment you selected the first field and give you the option to fill out the form directly. You can create as many different profiles as you like, and Chrome will display all of them when filling out the form.
Autofill forms on Firefox and Dolphin
Firefox and Dolphin do not come with this built-in feature like Chrome and therefore we have to use an application called RoboForm to fill out online web forms. After you install RoboForm on your phone, create an account and go to the page Identity to create a new profile. RoboForm is an application used to remember passwords and automatically fill them in on websites, but it can also be used to fill out forms.
After creating the profile, go to the RoboForm settings page and install the add-on for Firefox and Dolphin depending on the browser you are using. Once the add-on is installed, you can go directly to the settings and autofill web forms.
Note: RoboForm also comes with a built-in browser if you don’t want to use add-ons and want to use the app directly.
Conclusion
Well, I just made it easy for you to fill out forms on Android. I’m sure you’ll love this feature next time you see a web page with dozens of fields to fill out. Chrome’s autofill settings are easy to maintain, but RoboFrom offers more granular profile creation and offers powerful form-filling options. Try them out and share your views with us.
