"Remember Me" feature at Login using local storage

Hi!

I need to add a remember me feature to the app I'm developing, I've added a check-box inside the login form and used jquery to store the email and password when the remember-me check box is ticked, it works well on a normal html project but not in my ionic app (I built the apk and tested too).

My jquery code :

$(function() { if (localStorage.chkbx && localStorage.chkbx != '') { $('#remember_me').attr('checked', 'checked'); $('#email').val(localStorage.email); $('#pass').val(localStorage.pass); } else { $('#remember_me').removeAttr('checked'); $('#email').val(''); $('#pass').val(''); } $('#remember_me').click(function() { if ($('#remember_me').is(':checked')) { // save username and password localStorage.email = $('#email').val(); localStorage.pass = $('#pass').val(); localStorage.chkbx = $('#remember_me').val(); } else { localStorage.email = ''; localStorage.pass = ''; localStorage.chkbx = ''; } }); });

I'm using an ionic starter from the market as the user/login :

http://market.ionic.io/starters/firebaseauthstarter

How can I get this feature to work?

I'm new to ionic and Angular, I'm trying to learn while developing, so please bear with me

P.S. Security isn't an issue since the app is very simple and does not contain any sensitive data, therefore encrypting data stored in local storage is not needed, I just need a simple way to implement the remember me feature so that users doesn't require to login everytime they open the app.

Thanks in advance!
