Im freaked out.
All of a sudden when I type my MASTER PW - each letter appears. This is on an iPad and an iPhone running latest iOS.
This doesn't happen on my iMAC.
Can I change this???

Am I imagining this or was this always the way it worked.
A little spooked because my wifes computer(company owned) seems to have been compromised.

    Hi @drneutrino,

    Yep, this is an iOS thing. You'll notice for any password field as you type the characters typed are very briefly displayed and then disappear. It has done that for as long as I can remember, and I'm not aware of a way to turn it off.

    Nothing to worry about, just make sure no one is shoulder surfing while typing your password. :)

    Thanks!
