I encountered a problem with TextInput on my Samsung S21. If I set the keyboard type to numeric
(and the same goes for number-pad
/decimal-pad
), it always displays phone number suggestions despite the autoComplete
flag being set to off
.
It was annoying to debug, for example, changing the value of importantForAutofill
seemed to fix the problem, but it reappeared after reinstalling. I also found out it was happening only with the Google autofill service, while with Samsung Pass autofill, autoComplete
seemed to behave as expected.
After more debugging, I figured out it is a bug that only happens with fields that have a placeholder. Therefore, the solution was a bit ugly, as I had to implement a custom placeholder for Android.
Here is the Snack: Custom Placeholder
