@haroonidrees can you please reproduce few more times and share more crash ids? Thanks

Hi, Clearing cache did not fix the issue, however clearing storage / reinstalling the brave app resolved the problem. I was getting the error even when after killing the brave app, which was strange. I'm not sure if it's related but recently I installed the bitwarden app few days before the issue appeared. Although the integration between bitwarden and brave is poor, but I tried various settings so that brave would pick up bitwarden auto fill, like draw-over etc. I couldn't get autofill to work but this may have been a contributing factor.

@haroonidrees could you please paste a few of crash ids in that issue? It would be much easier for us to filter them out from out crash reporting system in that case.

@haroonidrees do you have Brave set as an autofill service on your Android OS settings? Could you please remove it from there as a temp workaround for now?
