While other authentication schemes have been proposed, passwords remain dominant . These insecure behaviors make targeted attacks easier and lead to large-scale account compromise when data breaches occur. The cognitive burden of remembering many strong, unique passwords leads users to create easily guessed passwords and to reuse passwords . We conclude the paper with recommendations for the design and implementation of secure autofill frameworks. Our results demonstrate the need for significant improvements to mobile autofill frameworks. We also demonstrate how these frameworks act as a confused deputy in manager-assisted credential phishing attacks. Our results find that while the frameworks address several common issues, they also enforce insecure behavior and fail to provide password managers sufficient information to override the frameworks’ insecure behavior, resulting in mobile managers being less secure than their desktop counterparts overall. In this paper, we evaluate mobile autofill frameworks on iOS and Android, examining whether they achieve substantive benefits over the ad-hoc desktop environment or become a problematic single point of failure. In contrast to desktop systems where password managers receive no system-level support, mobile operating systems provide autofill frameworks designed to integrate with password managers to provide secure and usable autofill for browsers and other apps installed on mobile devices. My confidence in Roboform, after almost 20 years, is badly shaken.Password managers help users more effectively manage their passwords, encouraging them to adopt stronger passwords across their many accounts. That and their new way of showing all your passcards in the browser, rather than through the external app, maybe it's safe I didn't dive too deep, but if they are doing it all in the browser it seems like other plugins could get that data - maybe not the password but everything else. I have to exit and re-open the editor on every bulk change. If I try to operate on the originals it says they are not found. When I drag large numbers of items in the editor to regroup them it makes the move, but doesn't update the tree to show the source items as moved. It's very confusing, mostly because usually it's implying I have changed my password recently, which I haven't. What the hell is with the new confusing interface where it shows you multiple options when you try to choose the passcard to use, it has options for password you most recently used, previous password or something, etc. I thought maybe it was like a temp passcard it made to see if I made any edits, but I've seen it persist, it doesn't seem to be temporary. it doesn't seem to do this 100% of the time for all sites. If I log in to a site like eBay, for which I already have a passcard, I notice that it creates a new eBay passcard as though I'd not already saved one. It now seems to regularly generate needless duplicate passcards. Something about that particular site, perhaps. I redid it just to see if i had done something stupid. If I hadn't been paranoid and checking to see what it did I wouldn't have known, and would have been locked out. I update my password on a site and RoboForm saved the wrong password to the passcard - not the one I just set. With what? Asks me if I want to Undo the change? That's worrying, when I don't know what it has changed. Many times now (since recent RoboForm updates) when I just log in to a site that I've been to before, didn't change anything, RoboForm tells me it's updated the passcard. A few problems I've been having lately (since recent RoboForm updates):
