Description

Displaying fields most people will never use clutters up the simple 1-row keyboard and requires unnecessary scrolling for common usage. Fields to be hidden:

  • otp (TOTP secret)
  • Name (entry name)
  • AndroidApp1, etc. (autofill app hints)

While working on the keyboard, please also rename "Name" to "Entry name: {name}" in the logo popup, so:

  • when unsure, we know which entry is selected (see #2311)
  • so "Name" can be used for attribute/additional string without causing confusion, e.g. name on credit card. Even after renaming attributes, I've mixed this up countless times.

Thank you for making and maintaining such a useful app.
