A year has passed and nothing has changed.

No doubt the issue is being properly addressed by the team.

Sorry, I have to apologize.

The extension works as expected when Safari TP is set to be a default browser in system settings.

Hello @noxepy! 👋

Welcome to the community! I've split your post into a new thread since the issue being discussed in the old thread that you posted in was resolved in March 2024 with the release of Safari Technology Preview version 190. 

I'm sorry that you're running into issues, can you tell me a little more about what specifically isn't working on your Mac? Is 1Password not working when you try to access it from Safari Technology Preview? Do you see any error messages? I've tested 1Password for Safari version 8.12.0 in Safari Technology Preview 236 and everything seems to be working on my end. Are you using the same versions?

I'm glad that 1Password for Safari is working. You shouldn't need to set Safari Technology Preview to be your default browser in order for 1Password to work correctly, are you able to share what happens when you make another browser default? What stops working?

Came here as I experience the exact same thing. I have Edge as my default browser and Safari Technical Preview installed. Every time I want 1Password to fill something for me in STP it shows that it's locked and if I click on the app extension icon in STP, regular Safari opens as well, and in 2 out of 4 cases it unlocks 1Password in STP as well, but some of the time it just remains locked.

If I set STP as my default browser in macOS, it works fine and as expected. And I also thing that having regular Safari as default browser, also works. It's only when you have something other than Safari or STP as default when this happens.
