Questions
- Did Save password prompt which come after successful sign in is default feature of browser or is effect of rememberable feature ?
- How does remember me work than ?
Answers
1. It is default feature of the browser. The browser will ask you if you want your password remembered for this site. If you click yes then it will store the site URL, login ID and password into a keychain file. That keychain file will be used to auto populate the login fields the next time you come navigate to the page and are presented with the login prompt.
2. Remember me stores your authentication token as a cookie on your system. As long as you don't click logout, clear your cookies, or have not exceeded the time that the cookie will be stored each time authentication is prompted, for instance if your session times out, then you will be auto logged back in. Its function is more like "keep me logged in".
