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

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.

One of my users just encountered this too on Chrome. Very strange.

yes, same here, cant figure out how to disable other than kill the Chrome password manager completely.

I'm having the same issue just from the search field. It's still quite disruptive. There must be some way to disable it from Chrome or Airtable.

Has anyone had this same issue in other browsers? It doesn't seem to be happening in Firefox...yet.

Agreed, this has been happening to me as well. It started a few days ago. Super irritating.

For me, it's happening in the search bars like "Find a view" and interface record searches.

Hi everyone. Had the same problem and I found a fix that worked for me. 

Open a new tab on Chrome and go to chrome://flags/

Search "password generation experiment" and set it to disabled

Hit "Relaunch" button

That seemed to work for me, hope it works for you too !

does not work for me.

i've changed fields from being "single line text" to "long text". Now i'm not bothered anymore
