created issue #1

Feb 12, 2025 08:40AM

Jetpack Compose version: 1.8.0-beta01

Jetpack Compose component used: androidx.compose.ui:ui-tooling

Android Studio Build: #AI-242.23339.11.2421.12700392

Kotlin version: 2.0.20

When you try to use the new autofill semantics functionality on a textfield with a visualTransformation the password manager will store asterisks as the password instead of the actual value, e.g ******** instead of password, rendering the feature useless. If I remove the visual transformation everything works as intended.

Steps to Reproduce or Code Sample to Reproduce:

OutlinedTextField(
  visualTransformation = if (showPassword) VisualTransformation.None else PasswordVisualTransformation(),
  modifier = Modifier.semantics {
    contentType = ContentType.Password
  }
  ...
)

Megan can we use the deprecated autofill APIs on beta01/02. So we can update to the latest version but will use deprecated until beta03?

Hi David! Beta03 is now out, no need to use deprecated APIs
