Turn off autocomplete in chrome (completely)

Question

Having an issue with autocomplete in chrome.

Stack: React, Redux-forms

I turned it off by inserting random values to "autocomplete" input props and it works. But i still get suggests which look like this:

As far as I have been able to find out, this behavior is caused by input`s "name" attribute that Field component of redux-form uses. Chrome seems to memorize values by inputs name.

Does anyone know how to avoid this autofill behavior without using random field names ?

I think you can't and should not, except if it is something like credit card number. — CoderCharmander, Sep 29 '19 at 18:10
@CoderCharmander i want to use my own autocomplete and this is really irritating :( — nctay, Sep 29 '19 at 18:11
I found a solution: `autocomplete="false"` on input, or `autocomplete="off"` on form. I did not test it, but it's worth a try. — CoderCharmander, Sep 29 '19 at 18:14
@CodeCharmander tried it. still get that kind of suggests. It`s not even common browser autocomplete, it`s memorized values by browser. — nctay, Sep 29 '19 at 18:17
@ CodeCharmander btw you could input any unsupported value in "autocomplete" prop. — nctay, Sep 29 '19 at 18:18

The issue kinda resolved. Suggests were showed cause i set an input's name = "fullname". This behavior can be avoided by setting name with something more abstract, like "customerFN". To turn off autocomplete you can set autcomplete="nope" or anything not supported. "off" and "false" don't work anymore.
