How can I get 1Password instead of Authenticator

When I try to login to a site or app on my iPhone, I get, instead of 1Password listed, Authenticator is listed and under it iCloud Keychain is listed. I cannot access my 1Password vault. I have to go out, open 1Password, copy the password and username and paste. I have no idea how Authenticator took over 1Password's spot, but it is annoying to say the least.


1Password Version: 8.10.6
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: iOS 16.4.1 (a)
Browser:_ apps

  • Hello WDC! 👋

    I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble filling logins into websites and app on your iPhone. As a start, I would like you to make sure that you have turned on AutoFill to work with 1Password:

    1. On the Home screen, tap Settings.
    2. Tap Passwords > Password Options.
    3. Turn on AutoFill Passwords.
    4. Select 1Password.
    5. De-select Keychain and any other password manager listed.

    Then try to fill your login again using this guide: Use 1Password to fill and save on your iPhone and iPad
