For example, I use NVDA. Whenever I type in a new username and password for the first time, I get a little alert pop-up in whichever browser I am using, typically Firefox, though I know this works in Edge as well. With NVDA, if I press F6 once or twice, I will get to that Alert, and I can then just tap through the options to save a new password. From that point on, whenever I am going to type in the password into a Service login, if it's not already there, I can press the alt key and typically up or down arrow to get to the context menu inside the password edit field in order to auto complete the password for that login site.
Hi.
I don't think I have a helpful answer to your question.
but a question of my own.
So ever since I got my macbook I've noticed that most things are done through safari.
They're all web apps because you can't get most things on the mac app store.
Its taking getting used to.
So because the browser is kind of the operating sistem here I'm finding that it's actually not that great.
With voice over it's not organised in my oppinion and neither is it quick to use.
So if anyone knows features I'm missing to make it better then that would be great.
but if not then maybe I need to consider another browser?
I'm not really sure.
so hopefully one of you can help me figure a solution out.

What screen reader are you using?

Hope that makes sense. 😅
