Chrome keeps logging me out of websites For the last few months, my Android Pixel 2 XL (running 8, now 9) often shows me the login page on my frequently visited websites. I've managed to reproduce it with these steps:


Open Chrome (68.0.3440.85)
Visit facebook.com and login
Using tab switcher, swipe away (close) Chrome
Open Chrome again


Behaviour:
Returns to the facebook page, but asks me to login again

Expected:
A cookie is stored that ensures I'm still logged in

I'm not rooted, have tried rebooting, have ensured I have the latest Chrome version. I haven't tried a factory reset but would like to avoid that if possible. I also have a password manager (Dashlane) that offers to log me in, if that matters.
As confirmed by OP disabling Chrome app fixed the problem (Settings &rarr;apps &amp; notifications &rarr; select system apps&rarr;Chrome &rarr;disable app (to revert to the original version before updates)

I have no idea what caused this problem and only guess is Android Pie + Chrome updates didn't gel
