Feature Parity Request: Native "Generate Masked Email" Button (NordPass-style implementation)

Hi team,

​I am writing this as a paying customer of both 1Password and Fastmail. I recently migrated my entire workflow from NordPass to 1Password because, frankly, 1Password is the superior product in almost every way—except one.

​The Missing Feature:

I need the ability to manually generate a Masked Email from within the 1Password app (Windows, Android, Web) without relying on the browser extension to "detect" an email field.

​The Context (The "Downgrade" Experience):

In NordPass, "Email Masking" is a first-class citizen in the UI. I can open the desktop or mobile app, click "New Mask," and instantly have a private email address to use anywhere—whether I'm signing up inside a native Android app, filling out a paper form at a doctor's office, or dealing with a complex multi-page web form that your extension doesn't recognize.

​Currently, with 1Password, if the browser extension doesn't trigger the "Create Mask" bubble, I am stuck. I have to break my workflow, open Fastmail, navigate deep into settings, create a mask, and copy-paste it back. It makes the integration feel fragile and "browser-only."

​What I am asking for:

I don't care if the backend is powered by Fastmail or a future native 1Password relay service. I just need a "Generate Masked Email" button inside the standard Item Editor on all platforms.

​Relevant Tracker IDs:

I have done my research and believe this request maps to the following existing internal tickets. Please add my vote to them:

​PB-45537123 (UI path to manually create masks)
​PB-51907383 (Editing existing logins with masks)
​PB-49630961 (Mobile/Native app creation)
​IDEA-I-1983 (Desktop app manual generation)

​I moved to 1Password for a premium experience. Please close this gap so I don't have to miss the one thing NordPass actually got right.

​Thanks.
