That's WAY to much work. I used LastPass, 1Password and Keeper as password managers. None of them is good enough to use that flow. Either the password is short and simple enough that I want to tap it in with a remote (i.e. <8 lowercase chars forming a dictionary word with maybe a digit added for good measure) in which case I won't need the manager. Or it's longer or more complex than that, in which case I don't want to type it in. In any case, having to take out a phone, start the pw manager app, log in (even with face/thumbprint), search for the site and show the password before entering it, makes it like 5 steps instead of 1. Password managers that don't auto fill might as well not exist.
