Allow password autocomplete from macOS keychain #1324

Open 3f6a opened 1 year ago

3f6a commented 1 year ago

Problem Description

When I try to login to a Zulip server using the desktop app on macOS, I have to type (or copy/paste) my username and password. Usually, in other password fields, macOS offers to autocomplete both user and password.

Proposed Solution

Is there something that the Zulip desktop app can do to hook into this behavior? Let macOS know that these are username/password fields for such and such Zulip server, so that macOS can offer to autocomplete the password if it is saved in the keychain.

Additional context

I am on macOS Ventura, using Zulip desktop v5.10.0 (arm version).

Friendly bump.

(Because of this issue currently I prefer to use the web version of Zulip instead of the desktop app.)

I would like to add that having passwords remembered greatly reduces calls for help to the IT dept. So a big +1 !
