Hello Everyone, we are experiencing this same problem recently and could not come up with a solution. Basically the problem is that when autofill password is enabled and also the option in the preferences to save the security password via iCloud we have the same problem posted by the OP meaning after filling the password field when we move to the confirm password field, the iOS system shows the same action sheet attached from the OP (String password or Other Options) and if we choose the Other Options action and then Choose My Own Password both field (Password & Confirm Password) will be emptied.
Is this a strange behavior and we as engineer have the responsability to cache the password typed by the user when dealing with iCloud security password & autofill password preferences options or is this a normal behavior?
Thank you everyone for the time, if you have any other further question to ask let me know

Hello, is there any updates about this issue? I think we are experiencing the same issue described here https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/724968 if we set the isSecureTextEntry for both password to false the user can type on Choose my Own Password without the Textfield being cleared if there were previous password typed, but if isSecureTextEntry is true the user can't signup because the autofill strong password continues to clear the password he previously typed manually when i choose the Choose My Own Password action.
Do you have the same issue?
