i just reset my password yesterday.  this morning i turned on my ipad and went to login and it said invalid login.

came downstairs and turned on my macbook and looked at the store password.   and then the stored password in my firefox browser (which i had not updated with the "new" password yet).  they were the same.     somehow ar15.com is not triggering the password app to STORE / update the new password.   because it did not ask me to update it.  

i went through the steps again to update my password and did.   while the Apple password app was still open and on the page to update the password generated i copied the password....  then when the reset was complete i manually added it to the password app.  and then firefox.    i could then login.

i have 184 stored passwords for all the websites i use.  and never had this issue before only on this website

 i do recall having this issue the last time, and i was able to ping Striker who was able to do something.    i no longer have that social media account to see what it was exactly.

i am hoping that is enough information for someone to be able to fix this.

I don’t know if it’s related, but I was getting pop ups on my iPad yesterday afternoon telling me that ARF uses cookies.
ProTip: Never pick a fight with a tree planter. He swings a hoedad for 9 hours a day, carries 30-40 pounds of seedlings on his back, and has 12-14 friends just like him hiding out on the other side of the junk butt pile. They will fuck your shit up.

I use RoboForm on Windows and Andriod, there have been many websites that don't work exactly right with it.
Usually it is forms for Estores or creating logins from scratch but I have seen your issue but not here.

if using chrome it would integrate with the chrome password manager syncing to your google account.
unless using another password manager.

sounds isolated to Apple devices.  i don't have anything Android to test this

No, mine does not have anything to do with Chrome. You can get the IOS version of it, use it across different platforms.
Google and Windows already steal enough info about me, no way I am letting them manage my passwords.

Safari on iPhone XR had that too.  The login uses cookies so I said "Yes" on it.

I have found that sometimes after it puts in the password, before I hit login, I will just add 1 letter or space, etc to the end of the password and then delete it, then i hit login and it works. It has Never happened to this site for me, but it has on others.

I visually saw the password didn't update
which is disturbing in itself.   Because it should have  and did not
this needs to be addressed

It could be one of two things:

1) When the password is entered into the site, it's adding a space before/after the password. We can address this to remove it on our end. (Should already be doing this, but we will make sure)

2) Password length may be off or not properly handled between the two. We would need to see what apple is doing and can dig into this a little more. We did increase password lengths, but sometimes the password managers change and make them longer and more complex.

I was also thinking the special characters used by apple may be outside the acceptable limit, but it would error when you entered it in during a password change, so I do not think that is an issue. This was a problem previously which we addressed.

I dont see anything that would be preventing the password storage side of things. Looks like it should work fine. I'll try to get testing done on it and see if we can find an issue preventing passwords from being stored properly or it may be on the login (entry) side.

Tested the entire flow and no issues with the password set or the password login. Worked flawlessly. Let me know if this continues and what's happening.
