I have a A16 on Android 15. When I go to a webpage in any browser and then have to (for example) go to another screen to get a security code, when I go back, no matter how much time has elapsed the web page auto refreshes and I have to start over. Then I start again and the same thing happens

I'm not sure why the browser refreshes itself when you leave and then come back to it.

Are you receiving the security code by text, email or some other way?

If receiving by text, what I do is when I receive the code by text, I just pull down the notification panel and grab the code from there, that way I don't need to leave the browser window.
