Dev channel update to 89.0.774.4 is live
love the password monitor and password generator, but one big problem is that the secure password generator is not offered on all websites, in fact only very few of websites or CMS, are supported. even popular websites are not supported, such as Facebook.
have sent feedback before and also send feedback for individual websites, not sure which one is more useful.
also the strong password generator during sign up Needs to work, even when there is already a set of credentials saved for that website.

HotCakeX password generation not being offered on many pages is a big issue we're trying to tackle right now. We're using machine learning to figure out what actually is a sign up page since it's not like there's any standard for them, but to help fill in the gaps, we've got a form here that anybody can fill out if they run into a site that it isn't triggering for: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=v4j5cvGGr0GRqy180BHbR123cdFSKdZItI7mcVwhTx1UM1FNWDRQVk9CTUFMU09DUkVaTjdETzIzNS4u

Thank you, I'm going to fill out lots of sites through that form,
I never knew about it till now, i think Edge should offer users that, at least to insider users, whenever a password field is detected and password generation is not offered.

HotCakeX we're also working on some fixes for our detection so hopefully that form will be less necessary once they're rolled out.
