Feature request: Provide Hide/Show button at vault login in PWAs

When I log into my vault using the Chrome extension, I'm shown a Hide/Show button. This is not the case when I use the Progressive Web App. The longer one's password gets the harder it is to avoid typos.

Hello @KCP6030! 👋

Thanks for the feedback! I've passed your request along to our product team internally. 

Have you considered using the desktop app instead of using a progressive web app (PWA)? The desktop app has a reveal/hide button in the password field that you could use. You can download it here: 1Password desktop app

Alternatively, if you have the 1Password extension installed in your PWA then the extension should unlock the web app as long as the extension itself is unlocked. You might need to refresh the web app for this to occur. If this isn't working then can you tell me which browser you're using?

My browser is Chrome and the 1Password extension is installed.

The PWAs "inherit" the extensions from the browser install. In the PWAs, to get to the extensions, you have click on the extensions drop-down and find the appropriate extension to click.

I use both Windows 11 & Chrome OS (aka Chromebook).

I leave the PWA open for quick references on either machine. 

I dislike the Windows native app thus I'm using PWAs for cross-platform consistency.
