Question

Make 1Password automatically ask to save password after login is done

Hello guys,

I know this used to worked on Safari at least, but I would like to have the ability for 1Password to automatically ask me to save a password when I enter login details on a page (that are not already present in 1Password). As in saving to 1Password after I successfully login, not the popup that says Save to 1Password before I actually see if the entered data is valid. Hope my explanation makes sense.

Keep up the awesome work ;),
Laurentiu

You're absolutely right. This has been a much sought-after feature since we've released the new version of 1Password for your browser. I definitely understand your passion for this, and the benefit to your workflow when signing into sites for the first time. While I can't speak to when we'll be able to see autosave brought to 1Password in the browser, I can assure you that this is one is on the roadmap for a future release.

In the meantime, if it's imperative that 1Password offers to autosave after submitting, the 1Password classic extension would be best solution in the interim. Again, apologies for the disruption to your workflow here.

No, the current behavior is not that bad that I would use the clearly inferior classic extension. It's a flaw and sometimes an annoyance, but nothing more. It only bothers me, because it's a thing that wasn't done right in my opinion, while so many other really difficult things were done right.

I use LastPass for work and recently got 1P for some personal stuff and I must say that this behavior of 1P's is bizarre and frankly makes me question using 1P for personal. I have 35 years of experience in IT and the Tertius3 is exactly correct, the idea of saving replacing the old, working password with a new, password that is not validated yet is simply nuts.

Just adding my voice here that I would love that behaviour back! Is there already an ETA when it will be released (or tested in a beta)?

Hi @dbland / @Ryon:

We generally keep things pretty close to the chest, so while it's on the roadmap as Chantelle mentioned, we don't have anything further to share at this time.

Thanks for your feedback, and feel free to get in touch if there's anything else we can help you with.

I want to mention my experience with this design feature. I recently had to set up LastPass at work and 1P for my own personal and in both cases the first thing I had to do was change all my existing passwords to make them stronger. In LastPass this was simplicity itself and NEVER ONCE had a data-inconsistency where it was saved on the website but not in LastPass.

Contrast that with 1P where I would say 15-20% of the time the password is saved in 1P and then rejected by the website. And this turns into a HUGE time suck because I then need to manually generate a strong password (and do you know that there is no option in the browser extension to generate a password on the fly, manually - unlike LastPass, I have to add). And then follows many, many aggravating button clicks to get where I can revert the login instance in 1P back to the correct password. I cannot tell you how infuriating this is.
