1P and Form Autofill Suggestions Overlapping
Minor workflow annoyance, but it's actually two "issues" that I seem to have frequently. The first is that the "extension button" or "autofill button" (not sure what it's called-- the 1password but...
Hello Dave. I did not say that the button doesn't appear when clicking into it. I said sometimes it doesn't show until I click into it. You said it doesn't show without clicking into the field, but sometimes it does. I wish that was an option as that would alleviate the issue as well.
As for Chrome's password manager, it is not enabled. I am an IT professional for over 25 years and have been using a password manager for most of that time, 1password for 7 years now, and never the browser. As I mentioned, the info popping up is Chrome's autofill suggestions. If I disable "Save and fill addresses" in Chrome, then the issue goes away. But I don't want to disable that.

ModeratorThanks for the reply. I'll respond below:

If a website automatically focuses the field when you load the page then 1Password will show the icon in the field. Some websites don't focus the username/password field when you load the page so you need to click into those fields manually to focus them. Whether or not a field is automatically focused when you load the page is something that is controlled by the developer of the website in question and not 1Password.

Using two different filling methods, such Chrome's built-in filling and 1Password, at the same time will lead to conflicts where suggestions will overlap. The best option here would be to completely turn off Chrome's filling features and just use 1Password to fill addresses and other information. By default, 1Password turns off Chrome's built-in autofill features after you install 1Password to prevent conflicts of this sort:
