[Bug 1506836] Re: LastPass bookmarklet not supported in ubuntu-touch browser

 

Ah right, so I just checked my own server logs and the user agent string
in the Ubuntu browser is "Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Ubuntu 14.04 like Android
4.4) AppleWebKit/537.36 Chromium/35.0.1870.2 Mobile Safari/537.36".  I
don't think I can realistically blame LastPass for treating it like an
Android phone!

I'd say that if you don't support "android:"-style links then you're not
"like Android 4.4" at all.  That's gonna break all kinds of stuff I'll
bet.

Title:
  LastPass bookmarklet not supported in ubuntu-touch browser

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  LastPass offers a bookmarklet feature, a little piece of javascript
  you can run from the address bar which fills in passwords for you.
  This is the only convenient way to use a password manager like this on
  a device that isn't natively supported by their plugins.  I used to
  use this feature all the time on my Nokia N900.

  The way it should work is:

  * Log in to the LastPass website, and in the "Tools" menu select "Bookmarklets"
  * Long press on "LastPass Fill!" and tap "Bookmark link"
  * Navigate to a website to log in to
  * On the address bar, clear the address and type "lastpass"
  * Bookmarklet will be suggested as a bookmark with a star icon (it starts "android:lpfill...")
  * Tap that bookmark
  * It should execute the javascript and fill in username and password (after authenticating with LastPass)

  In fact after tapping the bookmark it does nothing.
