There’s a chance you may have previously blocked the login for this website. Once blocked (it has “-Blocked-” in its name), AutoSave will no longer pop up on any pages of the website. To unblock this website, navigate to the Editor >> delete the blocked login >> resave.

Why can’t I use Chrome’s built-in password manager with RoboForm?

The decision to replace the built-in browser password manager with RoboForm was made following the careful consideration of both end user and reviewer feedback. Such a setting modification is standard among modern password managers and is enabled by major browsers. In addition to browser password managers being less secure than RoboForm, receiving autosave password prompts from both the browser and RoboForm proved to be an added inconvenience. With that being said, while we cannot provide an ETA, we are still investigating the feasibility of simultaneously offering both options.
