Disable auto-fill auto-submit

I've recently switched over to giving 8 a try and one thing that's been really bugging me is the fact that auto-complete auto-submits the login. In 7, there was a way to disable this 'feature'. It causes me a lot of issues as a few sites I use pop up a captcha after you enter your login info and the auto-submit causes the captcha to fail and the account to be locked for an hour.

Is there any way to go back to the old behavior?

    Ahh, that did the trick. It wasn't obvious to me that "Universal Autofill" also applied to the Browser extension. Thanks for clarifying.

    Hey @billvortex, are you using the Universal Autofill feature in Safari to get that auto-submit behavior? If not, what steps are you taking to fill and what website is your info being auto-submitted on?

    That feature should only be available via Universal Autofill (which can be invoked via a keyboard shortcut), and it only works in Safari. To turn off auto-submit in that situation:

    1. Open the 1Password app, left click '1Password' in the top left corner and select ‘Settings’.
    2. Under General, scroll down to Autofill and de-select "Submit Automatically with Universal Autofill".

    If you're seeing it elsewhere, then the issue may be related to the specific website or browser, which we'd need more info to look into. Please let us know if that's the case.
