You need to supply the app with your username and password. The app could theoretically steal your credentials when you enter them in order to login. It’s a good reason to not reuse passwords.

Oof, I didn’t give this thought when I signed in. I luckily didn’t reuse my password here but that’s a great reminder, and good to know my exposure…
