Universal Autofill and Quick Access aren't working in Chromium browsers like Chrome and Brave

  • macOS Sequoia 15.4
  • 1Password for Mac 8.10.70
  • 1Password extension for Edge, Version 8.10.70.27
  • Microsoft Edge Version 135.0.3179.54 (Official build) (arm64)

Autofill / Universal Autofill no longer works! 🥲

CMD \  no longer works - it just brings up Quick Access.

Nothing's been changed in any settings - Autofill is still enabled, CMD \ is still enabled, etc.

  • Hello folks,

    I'm sorry for the trouble caused by an issue where Universal Autofill isn't working correctly in Chromium browsers like Chrome and Brave. The team and I appreciate all of your patience while we looked into the issue. Our development team is currently testing a fix in the nightly version of 1Password, if testing goes well the fix will be released to the beta and then to the production version as soon as possible. If you'd like to help us test the fix then you can try the nightly here: 


    If you'd like to avoid using the nightly, and wait for the fix to be released to the production version of 1Password then you can continue to use 1Password in the browser to fill your login credentials instead: Get to know 1Password in your browser

    We'll update this post as soon as the fix is available in the production version of 1Password for Mac.

    I can't use cmd-\ to bring up the normal 1P prompt in MS Edge/Mac.  I use that instead of the browser-based drop downs, and have for years.

    This started recently, possibly with an Edge update.

    It works fine with Chrome, also up to date.

    It happens on two Macintosh computers: one a 2017 iMac (Intel), and the other a year-old Macbook Pro M3.  Edge doesn't work, Chrome works.

    Does anyone have any thoughts?

      I have the following problem:

      When I press CMD+SHIFT+X (Quick access), it used to open a pop up with a list of passwords for the website I was browsing at the time.

      However, now Quick Access pop up now opens with only 2 items, which are not related to the website I'm browsing:

       

       

       

       

      I have reviewed all settings and everything is connected.

      After some research I have found that these 2 items happen to have Chrome as a connected app, like this:

       

       

       

       

       

       

       

      No other login item is connected to chrome.

      I need help to understand:

      • Quick access should suggest items related to the website I'm browsing, right?
      • Why are not all items connected to chrome?

        Thanks. 

        Why should I remove chrome from linked apps on those items? Shouldn't that be the normal behavior?

      Hello,

      One of the best features 1Password had was the website detection. When I'm on a specific website in it's login page I just use the shortcut "shift + cmd + space" and opened 1Password app. When the app opens, it used to show my passwords for the specific domain of the website I'm currently in.

      Sadly it is not working anymore. When using the shortcut I now need to search for the website to find it's password. This issue is happening in both my personal MacBook Pro and my company's MacBook Pro (both apps version being the latest release).

      Disclaimer: I know that I can install the extesion that does something similar to it. But I just don't like the extension and prefer to use only the macOS app.

        Hello gus3293201​! 👋

        Welcome to the community! There is currently a bug that prevents 1Password from reliably filling into Chromium browsers like Chrome, our development team is investigating the issue alongside our friends at Apple.

        For the time being, as a workaround until the issue is fixed, you can use 1Password in the browser (the browser extension) to fill your login information into Chromium browsers instead of using Universal Autofill: Get to know 1Password in your browser 

        Alternatively, you can use a non-Chromium browser like Safari or Firefox. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

      I've seen what look like similar reports but I'm not sure they are exactly the same. I'm using Chrome on Mac (Ventura and Tahoe). When I hit the autofill shortcut key, if 1password is locked I get the popup asking for my password, but once unlocked, it no longer fills in my username and password. If I click in the user name field my login pops up as a choice underneath the field, but nothing happens automatically like it used to. There is a partial workaround, which is to press Shift-Command-X, which opens a popup window and has the correct item as the first choice, so if I hit Enter at that point it does fill in my user name and password. It's just an annoying extra step which shouldn't be necessary. Is this a known issue? Does anyone know if it's being addressed? (This is my first time on here - does 1password support read these posts?)

    Since I updated to macOS 15.6 (new version of Sequoia) a few hrs ago, the issue with the Safari extension seems gone / fixed. In parallel to the system update, the 1P main app was updated to 8.11.4 (81104025 BETA). I did a save boot after the updates (also Adobe, MS Office and some other App had updates.). 

    I hope that my assumption holds true also after prolonged testing.

      Thank you for the report! I'm also no longer able to reproduce the Safari extension autofill issue after updating to macOS 15.6 which does seem to suggest that the fix is now in the stable version.

      Our team is currently testing this further in order to confirm that the issue is now fully fixed.

      Tezcatlipoca​ and Speed​ 

      A fix was released in the latest beta to address an issue where Universal Autofill stopped working in all apps (not just Chromium browsers like Edge) due to a change made in the previous beta update. This specific issue did not affect the production version of 1Password. 

      Just to confirm: is Universal Autofill not working just in Chromium browsers like Chrome or Edge on your Macs? Or are you also seeing the issue in Safari and in other desktop apps as well?

        Hi 1P_Dave​ . I'm using the beta version, as per my previous post:

      Yep...it is absolutely crazy to me that this has been going on for months now without resolution. My credit card isn't going to work when it comes time to renew 1password. 

       

  • Hello Tezcatlipoca​, bwadm​, and JerrySG​! 👋

    I'm sorry that Universal Autofill isn't working correctly, this is a known issue that I've been able to reproduce as well and a bug report has been filed with our development team to get this fixed. I've added all of your reports there. 

    For the time being, as a temporary workaround, please use 1Password in the browser to fill your login credentials in the browser: Get to know 1Password in your browser

    When it comes to other apps, you can copy and paste your login credentials from the 1Password app. Hopefully this will be resolved soon.

        I don't have an ETA on when the issue will be fixed, it's currently open in our developer's backlog. I'm sorry again for the inconvenience. 

        Marking a post as a solution to a thread doesn't mean that the issue/request itself is fixed or closed. It's a way to highlight the most up-to-date answer to the community thread for anyone who stumbles onto the thread in the future.

      Hi Dave, 

      I have "1P for my Browser" (that is, the 1Password for Safari.app version 8.10.70) installed and connected. The small icon does show up in the username/pwd fields. BUT: it does not fill! 

      It did before the update to 15.4 (now 15.4.1).

    Same issue, except my problem is with Safari. This needs to be fixed pronto. I now have to create numerous Keyboard Maestro macros to get around the 1 Password problem.

      Just updated to the latest version of 1Password for macOS that was released today, 8.10.72.

      Not fixed! 🥲
