Identify Input Purpose
Name, email, phone, address and password fields carry the right autocomplete token, so browsers can fill them in.
Who it affects
Autofill saves typing for everyone, and it matters most to people with motor or memory disabilities, for whom every field typed by hand is effort and a chance to get it wrong.
What a scan checks
- Every form field whose Shopify field name says what it holds, such as contact[email], checked for the matching autocomplete token. Login and sign-up pages are included in the app.
How it gets fixed
- The field gets the token its field name calls for, such as email or postal-code, in place of none or one meant for something else.
Every change is shown before it is applied, recorded with the code it replaced, and reverts in one click.
Before and after, on real stores
Found by our scanner on live Shopify stores and fixed in a test browser with the same change the app makes. The stores are described rather than named, and their names are taken out of the code.

Newsletter and contact fields were missing it on 9 of the 17 stores we could check.
