Autofill for multiple Google accounts

Hi.

Context
I use a total of 4 Google accounts - 3 for email and 1 for Youtube only.

Symptom
When I save the password for a new account I have no option but to overwrite the previous username (other Google account) and save a new password. Technically removing the other Google account from memory. 1Password can only remember 1 Google Account - it looks like.

Hypothesis
As 1Password only saves the URL https://accounts.google.com/ it may not be able to differentiate between the different usernames.

The ask
I like your service and would like to keep my family as a subscriber once the trial ends - can you help explain how all 4 accounts can be "remembered" and autofill be turned on for each of them? This is a make or break feature for us.

Thanks

Extension Version: 2.18.2

    Hi Tommy,

    Thank you for taking the time to respond so promptly, in between the holidays.

    This workaround has solved the main issue, thank you!

    I'd love to also use the 1Password "auto suggest" feature to get a strong password in place for each of the separate accounts. Do you have a suggestion how to do that?

    Thanks

    @PeterTCH

    Try manually saving a new login for each of the Google logins. I have multiple and when needed I select the correct one from the available listings.

    Save a login manually in your browser

    I suggest naming each differently. This should help deciding which login to use.

    1. Google - A
    2. Google - B etc.
