Banking app's login PIN is visible in prediction bar
BeantwortetI use Axis bank app on android. When I try to login with a PIN, it becomes visible in the prediction bar as I type. I didn't face this issue in Samsung keyboard. There a different numerical keyboard pop up whenever I try to enter a PIN. Please fix this issue. It is a serious security flaw.
Hi, SwiftKey is designed never to learn from or predict what you enter in a specified password text field. It is up to the website or application you are logging into to build that specification into the field.
However, there are some situations out of our control where your password might be remembered by the prediction engine. The usual culprits are:
If you find your password is being predicted, you can easily remove the word from SwiftKey’s dynamic language model by longpressing on the word in the prediction bar when it is shown and tapping ‘Remove’.
Does removing the prediction help?
The PIN is not being predicted but shown on the prediction bar as I type. Any person can see what I am typing. However, this does not happen with samsung keyboard. There a separate Number-only keyboard pops up.
Hi Kallol Bera if you type other numbers, do you get the same on your prediction bar?
Have you tried to remove the numbers appearing on your prediction bar?
I just checked. Since the app supports only numerical pin it neglects any alphabets or symbols. But if I start typing a digit then the app starts to fill and also the same digit shows in the prediction bar.
Hi Kallol Bera, can you submit a screen recording of the issue (typing random numbers) via https://aka.ms/sk-support? Also, please provide your Microsoft SwiftKey Keyboard and OS version. We will be able to understand the issue better by seeing the video.
