Universal Autofill Stopped Working for Safari in macOS 15.7.2

I've been using Universal Autofill on my Mac for years and it has stopped working in the last few weeks. I remember updating to Mac OS X 15.7.2 and can't tell if it was that update, or the Safari 26.1 update that broke it. I checked other community posts and verified that I am running the 1password production release channel and was running 8.11.16 before this morning when I updated to 8.11.18. The autofill box will pop up and recognize the website I am on in Quick Access, but it won't fill in a username or password field on the website.

Hello everyone,

Thank you for your continued patience. macOS 15.7.3 appears to include a fix for an issue that prevented 1Password's Universal Autofill feature from working in Safari. Please update macOS to the latest version:

Update macOS on Mac

Note: This fix is specifically for Safari. If you're running into issues with Universal Autofill in other browsers then please open a new thread so that the team and I can help further with that issue.

Hello @Sasquatch! 👋

I'm sorry that Universal Autofill has stopped working on macOS 15.7.2. I've been able to reproduce the issue on my end and it looks like something is going wrong with how Safari reports its code signature on macOS 15.7.2 which is causing issues with Universal Autofill. 1Password needs to verify an app's code signature before it fills login credentials into that app.

An issue has been filed with our development team so that they can investigate further.

As a workaround, you can upgrade to macOS 26.1 which doesn't exhibit the same issue. Let me know if you still see issues after updating: Update macOS on Mac

@1P_Dave same issue here, macOS 15.7.2. Unfortunately, I have an Intel mac and I can't upgrade to macOS 26.1.

It's not only Safari. I tested with Brave and it doesn't work either.

Not sure if it is related, but although 1Password has Accessibility permissions, it doesn't show up in Automation (under Settings > Privacy & Security).

Thanks for the ping. Our team is also aware of an issue affecting Universal Autofill in Chromium browsers like Brave but this issue is distinct from the Safari issue. While the Chromium issue affects all versions of macOS, the Safari issue only affects macOS 15.7.2.

I've added your report to both issues internally so that our development team is aware that you're affected. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Not sure if it is related, but although 1Password has Accessibility permissions, it doesn't show up in Automation (under Settings > Privacy & Security).

This isn't related. 1Password will only show up under Automation if you use Universal Autofill in the Terminal app. Automation permissions are not required when using Universal Autofill in a browser.

I did want to note that there are Intel Macs that can be updated to macOS 26 but I do understand that not every Intel Mac can be updated.

Hi Dave, thanks for checking into this and filing an issue with the development team. I'm holding off on the upgrade to 26.1 and hope that there's a fix available shortly.

I was experiencing the same issue but upon installing Safari 26.2 (that just became available in the past couple of days), before updating my OS to the currently offered 15.7.3, 1password autofill works like it used to. I do hope others find resolution with this acceptable upgrade of Safari while remaining at our desired Sequoia OS. Note, I am using 1Password 8.11.22 (the latest available at this time).

Fingers-crossed for my fellow MacOS/1Password users.
