Link iOS app to existing website login

Question

I have set up an account to a service on their web portal.

They also have a iOS app. When I'm signing into the app and enter the Password field I get the Passwords slide up button, and then the Password app selector panel. I choose 1Password, find the existing entry for the account create on the website and select it.

Now 1Password asks me "Fill Anyway?" and offers "Allow Once". I pick "Allow Once", but I would like to have "Always Allow" or similar.

How do I link this entry to the iOS app in a persistent way?

1Password isn't able to "see" outside of it's window on iOS devices and so it relies on the app that it's filling into to provide the correct associated domain so that the domain can be matched with the website address saved in 1Password for a certain item.

The developer of the app in question would need to add an associated domain. You can share the following with the developer: Supporting Associated Domains | Apple Developer Documentation

Hello @DavidEves! 👋I'm sorry that you're not seeing an "Always Allow" option when filling your login into a particular iOS app. On the iPhone AutoFill is specifically handled by iOS through an Apple feature named iOS Password AutoFill and 1Password only provides the data for the experience.iOS AutoFill will match the apps that you use to your login items in 1Password by taking the associated domain associated with an app and comparing it against the website URL in your login items. If there is a match then Password AutoFill will offer to fill your login information. If your login item is not being suggested for a particular app then you'll need to add the app's associated domain to your login item in 1Password. When you tap on the username or password field in an app you'll see the Password AutoFill prompt appear (above your keyboard), tap on the prompt and then search for the appropriate login item. Then, tap on that Login Item and tap "Always Allow"If you don't see "Always Allow" when you search for and tap on a Login Item then it means that the developer of that app hasn't added an associated domain and there is nothing for iOS AutoFill to use to match the app to a Login item in 1Password. This means that you'll need to search for the correct Login item each time that you fill your login credentials into that app.You can also contact the developer of an app to have them add a specific URL as an associated domain for their app. Here is Apple's developer page regarding associated domains that you can share with them: Supporting Associated Domains | Apple Developer Documentation-Dave
