Retrieving Verification Code From Text
Has anybody else had issues auto-retrieving auth codes from texts and putting them into the forms? It rarely works on iPhone whereas with my last cheap Android it worked nearly every time.

Hello there The_Dude_7,
We'd like to help get the auto-retrieving codes to work correctly, so let's confirm some basics:
Take care.
Thanks for the reply. I am using the new iPhone SE and it is up-to-date. It’s an insignificant issue, I know, but irksome.
As a test I tried logging into my yahoo account from safari. It sends a verification text message with a code to enter into a field.
In the past sometimes (don’t remember what website) the code was taken from the text msg and put into the suggested text field above the keyboard where I could tap it and it would be inserted into the field on the web page. Sometimes it doesn’t show up right away and tapping on the website field again brings it up.
I was unsuccessful with this test. Rebooted and cleared safari cache per your instructions. Still unsuccessful. I realized I was using the google keyboard- removed that and repeated the test. Still unsuccessful. Also unsuccessful with chrome as the browser.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for the reply. No dice. I’ve checked the settings/ privacy mode, removed all keyboards except the default. No carrier updates available (T-Mobile if it matters).
Any thing else you can think of besides resetting the phone?
-Thanks
