Deactivate Hide My Email in autofill

Hi, I recently updated to iOS 15, and now when I am filling in a form on Safari, my email address in autofill is replaced by “Hide My Email” unless I actually start typing it in. This is annoying, as I do not want to use Hide My Email most of the time. How can I turn this off?

I just had the same issue and contacted customer service we eventually figured it out after 30 minutes. Open settings then go to Safari then go to auto fill then turn the toggle switch on for use my info. Then you will now have the option to auto fill your email again or hide my email voilà!

I think it was suggested to get rid of hide my emails for websites that may be listed in your settings. I did this and entered my contact info. Then I went to my contacts and deleted my emails and sorted them by priorities I.e first to show on my profile. Voila no more hide my email and both emails show with main one first in autofill.

Previously I first tried pointing my iPhone to the north at 2:30 pm and prayed to the sun gods.

That worked about as well as the Apple response I have seen.

Good luck and no warranty or guarantee impied.
