    I'm having an issue with password auto fill on iOS and wondering if this is officially supported and if there might be some simple configuration change I need to make to get it to work right.

    Here is what I'm experiencing:
    • Click on the field
    • Keyboard opens up with "Passwords" option
    • Click "Passwords" to open up native autofill dialogue
    • Click one of the accounts in the list
    • Keyboard closes and the input field has no text in it
    Here are my settings for this input field:

    bumping this post again. Has anyone else ran into this problem and been able to come up with some kind of workaround for it?

    I'm having this issue as well, except for Android. Email autofill works just fine, but the password one doesn't.

    Unity version 2019.4.22f1

    Same issue here, but it was working fine like one month ago. I checked the history and I did not change textmeshpro or Unity version. So this is probably something that relates to some other package as I am having this issue on Android device (and OP on iOS). I don't understand it. My setup: Unity 2020.1.13, TMP 3.0.3.

    Could you provide a repro project for this issue? I created a simple scene with autofill but I couldn't reproduce it.

    Same issue here on Android. Autofill pops up, I choose the desired email, keyboard goes down and the field stays empty.

    Same issue, but only with emails.
    Unity 2019.4.27 & 2019.4.28
    TextMeshPro 2.1.6
    I noticed that it only appears when the Content Type is set to Email. When I changed it to standard it worked and autofilled. Made a bug report, not sure the email / password issue is connected.

    I filed a bug report for the email autofill issue. I bet it's related to the password. You can probably comment about it and vote in the autofill bug page.

    I also have this problem for any autofill scenarios (email/password/SMS code) on both iOS and Android. TMP: 3.0.6 & Unity 2020.3.13

    I am encountering similar issue. We have an email field, Google Keyboard offers auto-fill suggestions, and when you tap on them nothing happens. (Keyboard disappears, no auto-fill).

    Its really terrible user experience. It is already awkward enough to type in landscape mode. This makes the experience way worse.

    Hey,
    Same issue here.... That's indeed a terrible user experience. I'm looking for a workaround, but still don't get something robust... Do you guys have an idea how to manage this? Like a native plugin or something?

    this package advanced-input-field-2 solve it.
    Just set the autofill type of an advanced input field to Username or Password and auto-fill works well :)

    June 21, still no fix, and total radio silence from Unity's side..
    Every day it's something else, crap like this makes me wonder why I still bother paying for a bunch of 'Pro' licenses...

    Hi,
    I'm impressed that this still happens. In my case, it's the password field, the email field autocompletes fine. How is it possible that this has not been solved so long after?

    Do they understand this isn't limited to passwords auto fill?

    It's any non-autocomplete suggestions. Google keyboard offers a lot of them including passwords, smart clipboard paste shortcuts and commonly used emails.
