1Password browser extension not as good as using the password selector option?

This is probably an iOS thing rather than a 1Password thing but I find using the "new" way of logging in using the 1P browser extension to be more cumbersome and slower than the previous "old" way of selecting the password from the bar at the bottom of Safari.

For starters the browser extension more often than not tells me i'm not logged in and I then have to go and open the Safari menu, go to 1Password extension, faceID login and then go back and try again. In this situation instead of doing that I simply just click the password already showing at the bottom of Safari, it authenticates with FaceID and fills in the login boxes all with one click. This was how we logged in previously with 1Password before the extension was added.

Due this i've now developed a habit of just using the old login method and ignoring the new method of using the browser extension.

I'm not sure if anything can be done on the 1Password side of things but it would be useful if the browser extension could stay logged in or it simply automatically authenticates with FaceID when you try and use it instead of having to go and open the extension, logging in and then coming back to the login.
