Can I use two password managers at the same time? (sh.itjust.works)

I use a password manager personally, but my work uses a different application. Both common names in this space.

Android lets me set one password filler, but I don't see how to go about having two active, if that's even possible.

Ideally, I'd like to keep the application/web credentials for work in the work password manager, and everything else in my personal one, and get recommendations/autofill from only the one with a matching app ID or URL saved.

Any tips?

I have both installed, but opening the work password manager every time I need it is annoying.

You can install two, but I only think you can have one active at a time to supply auto-fill. It might be possible if you leverage a work profile and install the work password manager in the work profile, but then it'd likely only autofill for apps that are installed in the work profile -- which honestly, is how you should be compartmentalizing things anyway, if you use one phone for personal and work functions.
