Google autofill not working since update

Since I updated last week autofill passwords no longer works! 

I use Google Chrome across all of my devices and it's only my S23 that it has stopped working for. I have attached screenshots of what I can see when on a website which I have a saved password but I am unable to click on either of the autofill options! Nothing happens at all.

I have tried all of the suggestions I've seen on similar posts - Google is set as my preferred service, cleared cache, restarted (it worked once after that but stopped again). I tried swapping to samsung pass then back to Google but still nothing.

Please can someone help

Ensure you are syncing your passwords.

Open Chrome app on your phone and ensure you are signed into your Google account.
Tap 3 dots in upper rh corner
Goto settings>sync. Ensure passwords is toggled on.

If yours is doing the same thing mine was, which is not letting you tap on anything in the Google box, passwords, auto fill, etc. I finally got mine working.  I cleared my cache and restarted my phone and it still didn't work.  You have to do a hard restart.  Basically you hold the volume down and power button together.  Do not let off of those buttons, don't touch anything else, it takes what seems like at least a minute, the screen will go blank (keep holding), then it will finally restart.  Now everything is working again.

I read on another link to fix this: do a reset of your phone. Long hold lower volume button and power button. This should fix issue with all updates to chrome. It's nonsense to have to research bugs in this way. I was totally confused with why this happened. Google/and/or samsung need to beta these updates before releasing them With no clear fix. Good luck with bugs in the future.

I had the same issue after update, to get your passwords to autofil You can also do the following: go to settings, security and privacy, scroll down to more privacy settings, autofill service from Google, toggle switch to show use autofill with Google...this should now have your Google passwords autofill when you go onto sites (the password might be in the lower section just tap and it will fill in for you)

I don't see a toggle switch to use autofill with Google. Samsung is doing more than usual updates and it kills PW and also my lock screen dimmer.
Very frustrating. They need to be more proactive fixing these bugs.
