Chrome thinks every field is a password field and offers to create or save the password

[Tish_Chambers]

Chrome has started thinking every field in Airtable is a password field and pops up the 'Do you want to save this password?' after I finish typing in any field. It is very annoying!

It is also preventing me from choosing a date in a date field because it pops up the 'create a strong password' right on top of the calendar and I can't click on anything!

I've tried Googling for instructions for how to block the password autofill/offer to save on just one site, but can't find instructions exactly. 

Is anyone else having this issue? As far as I know, I didn't change anything about Chrome, this just started happening.

Having the same issue. It just started for the first time today. Have any resolutions been released?

[Ron_Daniel]

Yep, a problem for me as well, happening for weeks now. I'll try the "Password Generation Experiment disabled" fix and in the meantime, hope that Airtable figures out what they broke.

Yeah, it has been happening to me for a while too. I figured this strange glitch/bug would get resolved eventually but we should definitely ping the devs to have a look. If we get enough attention to it they'll fix it rather quickly I imagine. Does anyone know how to ping the devs??

I'm having the same problem.

I've noticed that the "auto-generate password" suggestion appears in places where it shouldn't in various services.

Also, I believe this problem has been present since Google Chrome v118. When I tried using Google Chrome beta version: 119.0.6045.33 (Official Build) beta, the auto-generate password suggestion no longer appeared. Using the beta version of Chrome may be a temporary solution for some.

Super annoying bug. 

I checked and didn't find a way to contact support. Probably need to ask one of the premium users..

I am turning off OFFER SAVE PASSWORDS and then turning it on when I am finished.

Best solution so far. Annoying Chrome, thinking any text field is a password 😠
