Weird. Maybe it's just me. It's hit and miss whether it says secure or not secure. Same browser, same machine can say both things.
I am using duckduckgo on both android tablet and phone. Tablet has no issues. Stays logged in.
Phone nup, never, won't "remember me" even though the box is checked each time.
Username and password required everytime. Peculiar to this forum only and only since the advertising was added.
I am an IT numpty so no clue why.

Many browsers delete site cookies when you close the browser or the page; others (through browser settings) use "persistence cookies" (aka "Remember Me" checkbox) to keep cookies until you actually go after them with your pump! Global and individual site security settings can also affect how a site remembers or seemingly forgets about you, even if you check the "Remember me" box. I am using only Opera on my
Sammy the Samsung A12 phone and the shiny, sparkly, silver HP laptop. As my browser is set to delete all cookies on closing (quitting), checking the "Remember me" button has no effect. Too many inconsistent, incremental, compartmentalised updates to Firefox turned me off some time ago.
My job in Castlemaine was in IT for 8 years, loooong before Bluetooth and wifi (and fast 'puters!) and all the mod-cons we take for granted today!
