How to detect when user used Password AutoFill on a UITextField

Question

I\'ve implemented all the app and server changes necessary to support Password Autofill on iOS 11, and it works well. I\'d like it to work a little better.

I don't think there is a better solution.

One thing I noticed is that autofill is only enabled when the text field is empty.

So if the text field went from empty to a length greater than the minimum password/username, then it is most likely autofill/paste.

I am using shouldChangeCharactersIn to detect the change in the UITextField. I'm not for sure if there is a case where text from the keyboard could be batched together before the delegate method is called.
