When I plug my phone into my computer, I can see the logcat output in Android Studio. I recently noticed that whenever I start entering a password in a field designated for passwords (the ones that display '*' for any character), the phone prints a very concerning message to the console:
D/HwAutofillHelper: inputType is password, now record
Since it is an Honor Phone, I suppose
Hw
is short for Huawei?
Nevertheless, I'd like to know if there is a way to find out what process produced this output and what app it belongs to?
