Why it matters

Autocomplete lets browsers and assistive tools fill in names, emails and addresses. It helps people with memory, motor or cognitive difficulties.

How to fix it

Add the right autocomplete token (name, email, tel, street-address, postal-code and so on).

<input type="email" id="email" name="email" autocomplete="email">
