FaceID not offered to unlock 1PW 7 in Safari on iPad (iPadOS 15 and 16)

Hi @WillyMac, thanks for checking in with us about this! I don't have any updates to share on this at the moment, and I do apologise for any inconvenience caused.

If you would like, I would be happy to pass your feedback along to the team as well. Could you provide any details about your particular use case, and any suggestions for where you would like to see a password generator added? The more detail you can provide here, the better, as this will help us to understand your needs and file a detailed feature request on your behalf.

So, here we are at a year and a half later and no password generator. Is it even on the radar? I mean it's not like you don't have the code for it right?

Hi @AlexisA, thanks for adding your +1 here. I've filed your feedback with our product team as well, including the details you've provided about your particular use case 😄

Hi, Could you please note another vote for the quick-access password generator (from the tray)? This upgrade has taken what was smooth and seamless and made nothing but frustration. Adding extra steps where there seems to be no gain for doing so. Simplicity is key in this area and you made things complex and frustrating. As another user noted, even, ironically when creating this account to make this comment the password generator did not work in Safari, though I have the extension loaded.

Another reason why I don't want to use the browser to have to create passwords? Sometimes I use another browser where I do NOT want 1password loaded. So, really, I have to open a browser I am not using to create a password? Or use that overly complex "Add New Item" menu that has now been created?

Further, FINALLY, through searching this forum I figured out how to turn back on my default vault and yet it is still defaulting to the wrong vault. I hope it sort of "learns" since I just turned on the default vault. But still...Frustrating.

Please bring back the quick password generator. Why not? Thanks.

PS I used to be evangelical recommending 1password to family and friends. Now I absolutely will not unless it gets more streamlined again. Seems like you sacrificed efficiency for "cute" icons.

Hi aingerylspod! I've gone ahead and filed your feedback with our Product team as well. Thanks for taking the time to let us know this is important to you 😄

ag_mike_d Could you be so kind to also add a vote on my behalf?

I recently moved to 1password, and the missing quick and easy "generate password" feature is annoying. And the workaround of going through "new item" and then discarding the item, or opening a browser to use the browser plugin, is a royal pita.

Hello folks,

Thanks for your messages.

@PatrickV76 - I've merged your recent discussion into this ongoing thread and passed your feedback (along with @nollahwe's) over to the Product Team.

As mentioned, the password generator is no longer available through the 1Password icon in the system tray and there is not a keyboard shortcut to access this functionality. Currently, this functionality is available through two means:
1. Create a custom password in your browser.
2. During the workflow of creating a new item in the 1Password 8 app and clicking the password field, like the steps here when strengthening a password.

If you have any other questions, just let us know. We'll be here to help!

Since version 8 no longer has a right click option on the 1password icon in the systray to start the password generator directly, I was wondering if there is a keyboard shortcut or other way to simply open the password generator without using opening the app. I use a lot of password for testing purposes (in scripts for instance) and I really like the option to just generate a password and move on.
So I would prefer the return of the right click opion but a keyboard shortcut would be the next best thing.

Please add my voice/vote asking for the return of the simple and easy-to-access password generator in 1Password. I sorely miss it.
