Android 15 - CredentialProviderPolicy not surfaced by Intune
I have been having an issue with Android 15 devices. We use Authenticator as our password autofill provider. As soon as a device is updated from Android 14 to Android 15, the password autofill provider is no longer set and the setting to change it is 'blocked by work policy.' I have already tried removing all policies that apply to the devices (device config and device compliance policies) and factory resetting them. Simply having them enrolled as corporate owned fully managed devices causes this to happen.
I raised the issue in the Android Enterprise community blog. A link to that is included below. Someone on that thread found that there is a policy in Android 14/15 called the credentialproviderpolicy. When that policy is blocked or unconfigured, this behavior happens. I cannot find anywhere in Intune where I can set this policy. It seems that it is allowed by default when managing Android 14 with Intune, but not set or blocked when the device switches to Android 15.
Is there any way to specifically set a policy that is not reflected in the Intune UI? This is a blocker for being able to move more phones to Android 15.

Thanks,

Well, we’ve been waiting a long time for a solution from Microsoft.
Since Microsoft is now pushing for the adoption of passkeys (phishing-resistant MFA), we are more compelled than ever to address this issue. If there isn’t a solution to configure the CredentialProviderPolicy soon, we’ll be left with only two options:
1. Switch completely away from Intune to another MDM
2. Switch all business phones to iPhone
Either will be pain

Still no updates? Google claims the ball is Microsoft's court. https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/385775377?pli=1

This is completely insane. It drives everyone up the wall to have to manually copy and paste passwords. Users have gotten so mad that we were forced to reconfigure devices not to use work profiles.
Microslop is an AI driven dumpster fire.

Still a problem. Any update?
- tngvmdBrass Contributor
This has obviously not happened by the end of 2025. Is there any update? We are at the point where we are considering moving from Microsoft to Google.

It would be nice if Microsoft published something regarding their effort on this.
- Alex_DumontCopper Contributor
some one year later no news about this? Is Microsoft product team really involved in this anyhow?

It is being worked on by Microsoft but no timeline on when fix will be released
The Intune engineering team is aware of this issue and has confirmed that it is a top priority. They have advised that resolving this will require significant effort and is expected to take until the end of Q4 (December). Please note that this is an approximate timeline and may change as implementation progresses.
Currently, the project is under active discussion among multiple stakeholders, including program managers and engineering teams, as some implementation decisions are still pending. Rest assured, the initiative is moving forward, and Microsoft is committed to delivering a solution as quickly as possible.
For your reference, all official updates and feature rollouts will be published on the What’s New in Intune page:

Hi Remco8888
How and why is this still an issue. Is there any update or timeline on this? - IngemarJonssonCopper Contributor
All I want for Christmas....is for this to start working again.
My concerns for this is far greater than my relief of being home from work...

Any update on this?
- tngvmdBrass Contributor
Is there any update on this? Not being able to set a password / passkey manager in Android is a significant security concern.
- tngvmdBrass Contributor
I agree. It is incredibly frustrating that this issue still persists. This is a significant security issue for us since people are resorting to keeping lists of user names and passwords in an unsecure manner to make copy and past for credentials easier.
