Hello Pleonasm
Thanks for following up with me. I appreciate it!
I understand your concern. For users who regularly clear their browser's cache, this pop-up will continue to appear frequently.
While I can't guarantee anything, I've logged your feature request internally to share it with the team. Our product team will review your feedback to assess its feasibility for inclusion in a future version of 1Password.
Currently, you should be able to exclude extensions from being cleared when you clear your browser's history:
- Hold the
Option key ⌥
while using Safari - Click on
History
from the menu bar - Select
Clear history and Keep website data...
- For some context, Safari has a unique behavior where clearing the history also clears out the extensions cache. In contrast, other browsers typically only clear the browsing history and leave extensions data intact.
Lastly, please feel free to provide your feedback to Apple regarding this unique feature, as it differs from how other browsers operate: https://www.apple.com/feedback/safari.html

zaid_alian, thank you for your note. If the Safari history is not cleared, then the "A Quicker Way to Sign In" pop-up only appears the first time when signing into a website.
However, as expected, the pop-up reappears whenever Safari’s history is cleared – and, becomes an annoyance since it must be manually closed in order to remove it from the browser’s window.
Please consider finding a mechanism by which a user can optionally disable the appearance of this pop-up permanently and universally across all websites. In my opinion, a user who clears Safari’s history for privacy should not be forced to repeatedly experience the same pop-up. This annoyance did not previously occur, and I suspect it may be a recent "improvement" to the 1Password browser extension that perhaps can be reversed?
