      When entering wrong information in a form, you'll get an error. When you correct the error, the message is still there until you save. Some customers are complaining that they find that part confusing.

      For example, if I fill in the form for a new account and my password does not meet the criteria, I will get the following error message: "The password must have at least 1 special character(s) such as *, -, or #."

      When typing the new password that does meet the criteria, the error message is still there, until I click "Save". Users can think they still typed a wrong password. 

      My suggestion is that the error message will disappear when you start typing new information in the field.
