Summary autocomplete email does not work on input

I have a simple form with this input: <input type="email" name="email" id="email" value="" required="required" autocomplete="email" placeholder="Your email"> The form allow the users to subscribe to a newsletter. The user clicks on the field and starts typing the email, but Safari doesn't suggest anything and doesn't try to autocomplete. Chrome on the other hand, immediately suggests your user email when you focus the field. This is a better UX. Can you improve this?

Not sure if this is a Safari or WebKit behavior, but yes, this seems weird.

https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/form-control-infrastructure.html#attr-fe-autocomplete-email I'm not sure this is controlled by WebKit either. Forms have often the AutoFill form feature with a key

I found two instances where autocomplete="email" fails: - on insecure http:// pages - when the address bar contains the text 'login' There are probably more cases as well but it's difficult to say without more info
