macOS 10.15: Auto-type requires screen reader permission #3609
Description
Expected Behavior
I am using the shortcut ALT+SHIFT+A as my auto-type. Whenever I press that combination I expect the auto-type to start either by inputting the credentials or by showing a dialog with credential options for that website/application
Current Behavior
After updating to macOS Catalina auto-type stopped working. My shortcut starts something but for every website/application I get the error message saying:
"Couldn't find an entry that matches the window title: passwords.kdbx - KeePassXC"
When I check the auto-type settings for that website I also notice that the "Window title:" dropdown does not get populated with possible windows titles that are currently open.
Steps to Reproduce
- Update to macOS Catalina
- Open browser
- Open KeePassXC
- Browse to website where auto-type is setup
- Use shortcut to start auto-type
- The error message should appear
Context
We use KeePassXC at work with passwords that are all generated through KeePassXC so I personally don't remember any of the passwords. Currently I manually copy and paste the credentials which is more annoying but it works for now.
