Difficult to use in 1Password in browser at all
I am seeing a number of issues and usability problems consistently when I try to use the 1Password browser extension. When I get to a password field in a website's signup page and I right-click on it...
Hi @meisel, sorry to hear about the trouble. It sounds like there could be a couple of different things happening. I'd like to ask some questions in order to determine what is going on:
No 1Password icon being shown in the password box, nor any option to generate a password for it when I right click on the box
If 1Password can detect the new password field, then it would suggest a new password when you click into it, like this: https://share.cleanshot.com/DQJDN06b.
If that's not happening, then it's possible that 1Password does not recognize the new password field. Could you share a link to a website where you've seen this behavior?
After going to the next page, no prompting by 1Password to save that info for that site, instead I have to go to the 1Password site and enter that entry manually
If you click on the suggestion, or fill a new password from the password generator, then the 1Password extension should immediately prompt for you to save the login. Here's an example of that: https://share.cleanshot.com/hKxw1nyL
Can you head over to our test form at https://fill.dev/form/registration-email and see if you get the same behavior as I did in the video?
No clear way to remember my password every time I want to add a new entry
Could you clarify if you are having a hard time remembering the new password for the login you've just created, or are you having a hard time remembering your Account Password for 1Password?
Password entry not showing up when I go back to log in to that website, even when I search for its title. Instead, I have to go to the 1Password site where I added the entry, search for it there, and then copy-paste that
If you lock and unlock the extension, does the new login then get suggested on the website? To lock the extension, right-click on the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar and select Lock. To unlock the extension, right-click on the 1Password icon in your browser's toolbar and select Unlock.
Please let us know about all the above. Talk to you again soon.
