CTRL+\ while 1password locked

Hi there,

Thanks for adding CTRL+\ and CMD+\ back, that was pretty much the only annoyance I had.

One question, when 1password is locked and I hit CTRL+\ to fill a form on a website (in Chrome), it opens the main 1password 8 app for me to enter my password. I enter the password, then it just displays 1Password 8 instead of filling the form

Is this known? I've not tried it on the Mac yet to see if the behaviour is the same.

I'm probably in the minority here, but I'm happy with the change as now 1Password looks the same across Windows and Mac.. 1PW 7 always looked ugly compared to Mac.


1Password Version: 8.2.0-56.BETA
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Windows

    Hey @defiant,

    Thanks for the feedback.

    I also noticed that the browser extension remains locked intermittently too

    If the fill is happening I'm thinking this must be a visual glitch. The browser extension is what is doing the actual filling, which it couldn't do if it were locked. Are you able to narrow down when you're seeing this? I'd like to try to reproduce the problem and see if I can figure out what is happening under the hood.

    Yes, there are a few different cases we haven't been able to build around yet. One example we know is still outstanding is when multiple Login items match for the site you're viewing. At present the shortcut will only work when a single match exists.

    Thanks for that. As someone who is most at home on macOS but uses all of the platforms I too appreciate the consistency. No doubt we're in the minority in terms of the Mac-using folks who are currently providing feedback, but in the context of our total user base I feel our opinion is going to be the more common one. I don't know that there has really been any argument that 1Password 8 isn't an improvement for Windows users, and certainly for Linux users who didn't even have a desktop 1Password app prior.

    Just bumping for visibility, 1P_Ben ?

    In addition to the above, a couple of other things I've noticed. It takes about 4-5 seconds after pressing CTRL+\ for 1Password to show when locked

    Once you unlock it, its displaying the correct password but it should autofill no?
