OK, so I figured it out. After toggling the autofill switch it jumped me to my settings page which showed all my browsers etc. I believed it was asking me which browser did I want 1password to autofill. So I selected my default browser. Then it jumped back to the app and switch off autofill. After doing this 100 times I stopped and slowed down then noticed when it jumps to the setting page I could scroll down. I then found 1password as an option. I selected this and then it jumped back and autofill works.

Definitely user error but it was not clear that it was telling me I had to select 1password in the next settings page (it makes sense now).. Also 1password was not visible.

So I'm a happy customer now, busy cleaning up my 100s of passwords... Fun times
