Use android:inputType=textVisiblePassword for tan input edittext

See original GitHub issue

Feature description

Currently, android:inputType=text is used for the tan input edittext. This has the consequence that the user’s soft keyboard shows suggestions and may save the TAN to a dictionary.

With android:inputType=textVisiblePassword, no suggestions are shown and the keyboard shouldn’t save it in its dictionary.

Problem and motivation

The autocompletion of the softkeyboard may alter the TAN the user has typed in.

Is this something you’re interested in working on

@jakobmoellersap thanks for the input. The change was trivial enough (1 line) to risk that 😉
