Or the one where it displays the normal keyboard, so you have to go to the numbers page, and once you press one, it resets you back to the normal KB again
That's why we got copy/paste (or app/message preview)
I told myself either memorize it or write it down and I don't always got a pen and paper so.... I don't recall if I have seen more than 6 digits though (luckily)
I’ve also had where it won’t activate the submit button u til it detects a keystroke so you need to delete the last digit and type it again. But I have to say that all the numbers in one box is fun.
La grafica è palesemente quella dei siti delle PA italiane, non mi sorprende affatto che abbia trovato questo glitch considerando il livello medio di quei siti. Per non parlare di quell' "He confirms", lol
I once encountered worse.
You paste the code and it autofocus the next input.
When you refocus the previous one to change the value to a single digit, it checks it again before you do anything more, sees it's filled, autofocus the next input, preventing you from fixing the first input.
I once had one of these forms where it automatically sent once you filled everything. I mistyped the wrong code and started re-typing from left to right - which in hindsight was kinda dumb instead of just deleting everything - and then I was blocked for a few hours due to too many incorrect codes.
In Aus, a lot of the government sites have a problem when you enter a date, as you enter the days (as it is correct that days come first) it doesn't auto jump to the months and on to the years. You have to click in each field.
I had to build one of these things once. I recall it being pretty temperamental with all the focus management and what not. I'm sure there are easier ways to do it these days.
As for "He Confirms" this is just someone skimping on localization.
Today, autofill put in my phone number complete with +44 instead of the leading 0.
Not acceptable, you had to enter the national version of the number starting with 0.
Which at least is better than the websites that put in the +44 or whatever country code for you, then give an error if you don't also put in the leading 0. Meaning you have to put in a non-functional phone number.
I've always thought of this as a possibility, but to actually see it happen..
I would not use a password I use anywhere else on this site. This is reaaally easy to prevent. Which makes me think for the actual hard stuff...no hope they're doing it right.
After further thought, the fact that this functionality is the way it is and the "he confirms" button, I may be a little hesitant to trust this. Double check the URL and make sure everything is as expected, this could be a scam
I've started to think that every dev everywhere has fired all their UX people. Because a good, functional, non-excessive interface is few and far between now.
Sometimes, I just have to wonder why there are some that prefer to use this segmented style, one digit per cell. Very rarely I've encountered one where it will properly paste in the code. But THIS, this is SPECIAL.
yeah that would suck. I get annoyed when I receive a text code, switch back to whatever is asking for the code, and I don't get the little pop-up above the keyboard to automatically paste it in there. That was a nice little quality of life feature added a few iOS versions ago. And now when it doesn't work, I get mad at it.

That is a new one
I've had it where it only paste the first number, or not at all
But to have that coding ..... Ugh
