2 years agoHello @Anankee, thanks for writing in!
What's not fluid for a user experience. We expect 1pwd to fill in the app fields straight away, and not that we have to open 1pwd > find the file > associate the file.
1Password matches logins to websites via the URL saved in the website field, and to Android apps via an app link. As a security precaution, 1Password won't fill your information in a given website or app without your direct action. While the name of the app, name of the website, the URL, and the app address may all be similar, 1Password for Android would be making an educated guess to match Android apps to similarly named websites or URLs. Due to this, if an item is not created in an app through Autofill, linking it is required.
That being said, it is still very possible there are areas where we could streamline this process, or otherwise optimize linking logins to apps. My apologies for the trouble here, and thanks for including this feedback. I've passed it along to the team
And finally, it's not explained in the help page either... https://support.1password.com/android-autofill/ Too bad ;-) !
This is touched upon in the "Fill a login", and the "Get help" sections of the guide you linked. However, I would certainly agree more clarity on the steps to do so could be beneficial. Thank you for sharing this feedback as well.
