Question

How can I stop 1password from asking me to save passwords in the browser?

Does anyone know how to stop 1password from putting pop-ups in front of me to save passwords? I'm finding it very annoying. And in at least 1 case, it's confused and asking me to save a password for a supabase project which has been deleted (supabase is a storage service that has password protected projects). I just don't want 1password to initiate my saving passwords - ever.

1Password Version: 8.10.54
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: MacOS Sequoia
Browser: Safari

    Hello, @jimmyjayp. Thank you for reaching out. I'm sorry for the trouble. You can turn off the Save login prompt in the 1Password extension settings. Here's how:

    1. Open your browser. Right-click the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar and select Settings.
    2. In the Autofill & save section, toggle off the Offer to save logins option.

    I hope that helps.

       I want the same thing I think the original poster is asking for: I want to turn "Offer to fill and save passwords" off, but leave "Show autofill suggestions when a form field is in focus" turned on.  And I know I can turn off the "offer to fill" option -- the problem is that when I do that, it automatically also turns off the "show autofill suggestions" option.  I want 1Password to suggest credentials I've already saved, without constantly nagging me to save other ones.  Is that possible?

        I may have answered my own question.  I failed to recognize the fact that "Offer to save and fill logins and other items" is one setting, and there's a different setting labeled "Offer to save logins".

        Hi. Thanks for responding. Unfortunately, this isn't what I'm looking for. I want to be offered the 1password lock icon so I can initiate it fetching a password and putting in the form, I just don't want it to open any modal windows which a real distraction.

          @jimmyjayp,

          The Offer to save logins option in the 1Password extension settings is related to Autosave. The Autosave prompt should only appear if the Login item does not exist in your vault or when the credentials differ from the suggested items. Therefore, turning off this option should prevent the Autosave prompt (the screenshot you shared) from appearing.

          Let me know if you have any questions.

            Not the behavior I'm seeing. If I disable that option (which disables a lot of others automatically), I don't get the pop-ups (that's good), but I also don't get the opportunity to pull user/pass info from 1Password (the lock icon does not appear in the input fields to login) effectively making the integration useless for me.

            @jimmyjayp,

            Can you screenshot the 1Password extension settings under the Autofill & save section and share that in your next reply? Please do not share sensitive personal information in the screenshot.

            Here's a screenshot for reference from my end:

            1Password Devs - You NEED to FIX this !   

            Exactly as the others have said here - - provide a switch to TURN OFF the intrusive slide-over dialog that repeatedly asks to save an entered password - while still allowing the user to ASK for 1Password info when needed in the password fields

            @DKGee 

            Thanks for following up and I'm sorry for the frustration. You can turn off the prompt in the original poster's screenshot by following these steps: 

            1. Open your browser.
            2. Right-click on the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar and click Settings. 
            3. Click Autofill & save.
            4. Turn off "Offer to save logins".


            Does turning off this option not work for you? Turning off "Offer to save logins" will still allow 1Password to suggest existing logins.

            -Dave
