• I have tried disabling all browser extensions or using a different browser
• I have tried deleting the node_modules folder and reinstalling my dependencies
• I have read the guide for submitting bug reports.

On which framework/platform are you having an issue?

React

Which UI component?

Authenticator

How is your app built?

Vite

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Safari

Which region are you seeing the problem in?

all

Please describe your bug.

When using a basic Authenticator wrapper and a user needs to reset their password the password reset screen seems like it may have the wrong field tag or something as it saves the verification code in the username field in password managers.

What's the expected behaviour?

when resetting a password the username should be either in the view labeled properly or the verification field should not be storing in password managers.

Help us reproduce the bug!

vanilla authenticator wrapper
chrome/edge or ios with their password manager on
create an account. use vanilla authenticator to log in and save the password.
log out
perform password reset.
take authenticator code, type in, update password, submit and password manager will save a 6 digit code.

@spyderbr6, we tried to reproduce this on our side with a minimal repo that uses the authenticator component but didn't have any luck. Are you able to take a screenshot/short video of what you're experiencing so we can see it? Or possibly showing the element being inspected in the browser's dev tools?
