On Android they recently added support for auto-fill in any Android app (it uses the accessibility framework to accomplish this). It even works on random sites in Chrome for Android.

As much as I wish this could happen on iOS, I am a bit wary of allowing applications to affect all password text boxes in the OS.

I honestly don't mind the copy-paste routine, especially since they made it so you don't have to double-enter your master password.

You have to specifically authorize apps to be able to do this and there are heavy warnings shown before you do.
