“Hide my Email" integration

Hello everyone!
I was wondering if a "Hide my Email" integration was in the works (I've seen a few old threads on the subject but nothing recent).
I guess apple doesn't offer an API to developers for this feature but maybe it could be possible to monitor the change of an email address on an existing account in Safari, once the new "hidden" address would be filled in: 1Password would offer to update the corresponding ID.
Hope to see this possibility coming ;)

1Password Version: 8.7.0 (80700090)
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 12.3.1

    Hey @virtualbartek,

    I have passed this feedback on to the team, let us know if there's anything else we can help with in the meantime.

    +1 hidemyemail support. But Apple doesn't care enough to make the service usable on their end so I can't imagine they'd make it work better through an API. I went from Fastmail to icloud cause I couldn't afford Fastmail anymore, but hidemyemail is just TERRIBLE in comparison. Why in the world can't I send an email from a previously created hidemyemail address? It's junk! I only came here because generating the emails through 1Password would be such a help.

    I've let the team know that you'd like to see 1Password support Apple's "Hide my Email" as well. 🙂

    Ok, I think I have found the GitHub page.
    Nice work from the developer!
    Would love to see it in 1Password

    Do you have a link to share for the Chrome extension?

    There's already a chrome extension for this and the creator has posted it on GitHub as well. So it is possible to integrate. It'll be great if 1Password can offer this feature alongside Fastmail as well.

    My #1 request from AgileBits. Don't think it's going to happen because of their integration with FastMail

    +1 Granted maybe the blocker is Apple not providing an API to allow for this integration. I notice that "Hide My Email" is very hiden within Settings > iCloud > Hide My Email. Not very friendly for neither users or developers.

    Hi, that is a good point and managing the addresses from 1P is not something I'd considered.

    So far it has not been a problem and I'm struggling to think of a use case that would be a major issue for me though I am sure there will be one :-)

    Seamless integration would ideal at some point.

    Regards
