I'm sorry that you're seeing 1Password take focus from your browser. This is a known issue with the latest version of 1Password that our developers are currently working to resolve and involves the connection between the desktop app and 1Password in the browser. You should be able to workaround the issue by following these steps:

Option 1: Make sure that you're signed into the 1Password app and then reset app integration

  1. Open and unlock 1Password for Mac.
  2. Make sure that you are signed into the app: How to add another 1Password account to the apps and browser extension
  3. Click on 1Password next to the  in the menu bar.
  4. Click Settings.
  5. Click Browser.
  6. Toggle the "Connect with 1Password in the browser" setting.

Option 2: Turn off app integration if the first workaround doesn't work

  1. Open your browser.
  2. Right-click on the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar and click Settings.
  3. Click General.
  4. Turn off "Integrate this extension with the 1Password desktop app".

Let me know if you still see the issue after following these steps.
