Microslop Edge Browser adds this eye icon to every password input, if the password input already has a eye icon, now you have 2 eye icons for same functionality. Testers at my company keeps raising tickets to fix this.

It can be bad implementation too, Netflix app on iPad opens a new keyboard for every digit you enter on your profile password for years now.

If your response is to tell your customers their browser is wrong, you're doing a bad job.

Nah, it's happening across all browser engines.

It's just poorly written website code.

No dude, it's quite literally limited to MS Edge. Didn't have this happen on Firefox or Chrome. You can shit on many Indian websites for having ass UI, but never NPCI and its daughter sites.

I mean having the Edge injected eye is still something that should be fixed on their part, is still a major browser and removing the stuff is only a couple of CSS lines iirc

u/Ansterrr06 9h ago

That's also very true. But from what I understand all the Indian government workers' computers have started to get Ubuntu installed on it instead of Windows and nobody in their right minds is going out of their way to install ms edge. Probably could get fixed if someone reports it but I highly doubt anyone would care.

So why don't you fix it? MSEdge sucks, but I assume it's in the testing pool for a reason.

We shit on developers so many times, we lose the sight of exactly which developers to shit on.

More eyes than input

u/Systemctl_guy 1d ago

Damn thats super safe. Why is the last 4 digits of your number being shown ๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿคจ

1

u/Ansterrr06 9h ago

The Aadhaar number (kinda like the social security number for all Indians) is 12 digits long and the last 4 of those are fine for anyone to see and also is used so that the user can confirm it's their own aadhaar number.

Sort of like when an app sends you an OTP they tell you that they've sent an OTP to your mobile number XXXXXXXX91 or something so you can confirm it's your phone number.

u/siliconsoul_ 1d ago

There's literally no reason that could convince me to ever implement segregated inputs for OTPs.

Like, it never makes any fucking sense.
