For location, you can pick one time only, or access while you’re using the app (which some apps I think from there try to access it in the background, but iOS will notify you and ask you if you’re sure that’s okay every couple days or so I think. I’ve also been on dev betas and only really remember it complaining about the Weather widget using this all the time).
Definitely seems better than the all or nothing approach I remember from Android. But also I haven’t used android since android 9 was hot, so maybe things have evened out since.

Also, I can’t seem to find a source for it but there’s also a technique used where screenshots have the logged in user’s ID encoded in the background of the screenshot by using hex colors that effectively look the same.
Kudos to whoever's making this happen, I'd love to see this kind of speed come to both commercial services and services like Plex, Emby, and Jellyfin
Now considering that, I do think that they seem to have made the best out of the situation they were in. Hello Games seems to be a lot more open, not promising things they can't deliver, and they've been quietly bringing the game up to where they said it would be. It really seems like they're trying to make restitution and do things the right way, this time around. That says a lot to me about where they want to be in the future and what they've learned from what they did.
Anyways, I use the Bitwarden app on my S8 (and previously HTC 10) and it works great. I tap a password field, Android asks me if I want to fill the password, I unlock my "vault" with my fingerprint, and tap the right account for that app. It's pretty easy.
LastPass and Bitwarden also can hook into accessibility features on Android 7, to enable most of the same features, but since it's not part of Android and baked in it doesn't work quite as well.
