Feature Request: Use Autofill framework to pull credentials to sign in on Android

Open txtsd opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

In the Account section in Settings, when the Email and Password fields are focused, Standard Notes should use the Autofill Framework to suggest credentials to enter.

Autofill Framework: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/text/autofill Optimize: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/text/autofill-optimize

tl;dr when I try to log in, Standard Notes should show my available logins using the Autofill Framework

Hi @txtsd, sorry to the delayed response. This is something we'd like to re-add to the mobile apps but can't at the moment due to the technical reasons. According to our mobile dev:

Unfortunately it seems this is a bug in react-native-screens https://github.com/software-mansion/react-native-screens/issues/349. I tested it in the Android emulator, reproduced it, and when setting enableScreens(false), I get autofill working again, so looks like we are having the issue mentioned there. Tried upgrading to the latest version just in case but it hasn't been fixed yet, per this https://github.com/software-mansion/react-native-screens/projects/1#card-48762815 it appears the fix is still in progress
