Describe the bug

• Password managers are unable to populate the login form. For example, LastPass is attached here.

• Suggest Password in browsers does not function in the password field.
  

• Option for the browser to remember password does not function after submitting.

Expected behavior

Logins should be able to be stored by the browser. Also when using a password manager those fields should be populated from the user's direction.

Reproduction steps

I provided recordings showing each of the problem areas.

@tommulkins Thanks for the detailed report and reproduction steps! I was able to confirm that autofill for the username does not work in 1Password either, however, the password field does work works with 1Password.

After investigation, it appears the AmplifyAdmin sign in form is not using the necessary autofill attributes to enable this capability natively. I've added as a feature request to the backlog and we'll update here once completed.
