No Reaction from Apple yet Issue on iOS 13.5.1, 13.7, 12.4.3 Issue on Connected Device (Debugging), Simulator, TestFlight Alpha Builds (for iTunesConnect Users), TestFlight Beta Builds (Apple Approved TestFlight Builds)

Only Solution is remove the 2nd Password Field!

Idea #2 textContentType = .oneTimeCode suggested here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/53760545

if #available(iOS 12.0, *) {
    tfPassword.textContentType = .oneTimeCode
}

• not working
• not removing the warning "Cannot show Automatic Strong Passwords for app..."

Idea #3 remove CFBundleDevelopmentRegion

• not working

Idea #4 entend UITextField, override textInputMode return one with the correct lang similar to here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/52701639

• not working

Solution:

if #available(iOS 12.0, *) {
    passInput.textContentType = .newPassword
}

Implement: UITextFieldDelegate

public func textFieldDidBeginEditing(_ textField: UITextField) {
    if exchangeResponder == false {
      exchangeResponder = true
      firstnameInput.becomeFirstResponder()
      textField.becomeFirstResponder()
      exchangeResponder = false
    }
}

passInput.delegate = self
pass2Input.delegate = self

Now I can move between all fields and have everytime the German keyboard!
