Hello we played a game with my friend and for fun i tried to promote only bishops but with 3 light squares bishops shouldn’t it be an automatic draw ?

Where did you get that idea? (That it would be a draw.)

It probably wasn’t declared a draw automatically just because you had three bishops. Automatically calling it a draw would require more complex code from chess.com. However, having three light squared bishops is indeed a draw.
