Hi @meganh89,
Welcome to the community and thank you for your post!
I do understand your frustration with this. This secuirty check is put in place to protect your PayPal account. If our system is unsure it is you trying to access your account, or make a transfer it will ask you to confirm your identity. This is to ensure it is only you using your PayPal account.
If you continue to login from the same device and same location, the system should start to recognize you and not prompt you to confirm your identity each time.
Yes, you are correct the auto fill as been removed for secuirty reasons. You will need to manually enter the code going forward.
I will make sure to pass on your feedback to the relevant team.
Thank you!
