Hey @ak4913, thank you for your patience and my sincere apologies for the delay in getting back to you.
Can you confirm that the Show filling suggestions from setting is set to the account or collection that contains your MyChart item?

Hi 1P_Timothy - how did you link the Mychart app to your login info? I have the “show filling suggestions” option enabled, but if I create a new login it doesn’t link to any apps or urls. Thanks!

Hey there! It's pretty convenient to link an app to a saved login. So, let's say you've got that site login saved, right? Now, when you open the Android app, keep an eye out for an option like "Link Account" or "Use Saved Login." It should prompt you to connect your saved login details with the app. Once that's done, you'll be all set to access your account without the hassle of re-entering credentials.

Hi @beijder, thanks for writing in.
In your message you mentioned iPhones but this was posted in the Android section. Just to confirm, are your comments in regard to 1Password for iOS or 1Password for Android?

I still have issues with various apps on iPhones. I understand that when an app has a link to a website (Domain) this will work, but various apps do not have an association with a Domain. It's not possible in 1Password to manually link an (login) entry to a specific app. In some apps you can enable automatic login but this is not available in many apps. So I guess this would be a feedback request to make this internally possible to make this link between app and login entry. Or else make it possible (at least) to add the specific app into the Suggested Items.

To link an app to an already saved login, you can use a password manager app that supports autofilling. Install a password manager app that supports autofilling. Some popular password managers include 1Password, LastPass, and Dashlane. Open the app that you want to link to the saved login. Then look for the autofill option in the app's login screen. This may be a key icon or a "Fill login" button. If the app supports autofilling with your password manager, select the option and choose the login information that you want to use.
