I am a bit confused because the Module information does mention a TinyMCE requirement but in the log file I've found this:
- 7.x-2.x - Working dev version; can handle TinyMCE WYSIWYG areas only.

I have also been trying to get it to work on my own normal Drupal text field and the module doesn't work. So essentially I am asking two questions.

1) Is it working as intended that the Autosave cannot be activated in a "vanilla" text field?

2) Are there any plans to upgrade Autosave to work with non-WYSIWYG text fields?

I solved it by using the Form save state module instead.

Currently Autosave 7.x-2.x dev supports TinyMCE and CKEditor wysiwygs.

Non-wysiwyg textareas are and always have been supported.
