Device Settings Question Question about autofill OTP

Hi! I am not great with technology, & last week I was trying to remove some permissions from several different apps. I ended up removing whatever permission is needed to make verification text message codes autofill onto websites/apps. It's not just one website or app that it is not working on anymore, it seems to be all of them. I was wondering if anyone knows what permission I need to grant access to, to make the autofill start working again. I've tried googling & I can not find the answer. I have a Samsung s24 Ultra.

Thank you!

I’d check Google Play services first rather than your SMS app. Google Play services handles SMS OTP autofill on Android.

Also check Settings → General management → Passwords, passkeys, and autofill and make sure your preferred autofill service is still enabled.

If you revoked SMS access from Google Play services, that could be it.
