Having issues filling in passwords on Firefox android amd apps like ticktick and todoist?
I did some testing with the Todoist app and also found that Autofill wasn't available. 1Password will fill in most apps and websites, however there may be some where Autofill isn't available. When Autofill isn't available you can copy and paste or use split screen mode to drag and drop your credentials.
Autofill issues stem from a number of sources, but the typically falls into one of three categories:
* 1Password is not detecting the fact that it is a sign-in form and filling in the appropriate Login details.
* The app developer is doing something funny on their end which interferes with expected Autofill behavior
* The app developer doesn't provide enough contextual clues for 1Password to determine that it should offer Autofill.
I'm not sure which is the case here, but I've reported the app to the team for further investigation.
With the TickTick app, I found that I could fill as expected. If you don't see a prompt from 1Password after tapping the email or password field, I'd like to ask you to try "forcing" autofill:
1. Tap a sign in field to open the keyboard.
2. Long press the field.
3. Select Autofill or ⋮ > Autofill in the context menu that appear (where you might normally see copy/paste).
4. Proceed with filling as expected.
You mentioned some filling issues in Firefox. I'd like to ask you to share any URLs where you've encountered an issue and I would be happy to take a look.
I don't want my SwiftKey keyboard to enter into Incognito mode everytime a username and password field appears.
The account password field of the 1Password app can trigger the incognito keyboard, but this shouldn't be the case in most other sign in fields. Could you share where you've seen this behavior and if you typically use a private tab in Firefox?
