Absolutely, we love hearing feedback and comments from our 1Password users! It helps us understand more about how we can improve the tools you use in your workflows each day :)
Only when I enter my username and click "Continue" does something appear, although I personally wouldn't describe this as a prompt, as much as a notification that my account is being created.
This 1Password prompt in the top right, shown in your screenshot, appears when the website is registering or signing you in with a passkey from 1Password. Like our PassParcel demo, websites will first require you to click on a button before a passkey is created or used to sign you in, which I find in my experience with passkeys a confirmation method.
Are you hoping to see a more visual indicator that you signed up for that website with a passkey, similar to how the "Sign in with" feature we launched today looks when prompting you to sign in with Google or Okta?
The only place where I can get this to happen, is in the hobby project I am currently working on, which is running on localhost.
Oops, that was our doing 😅 As the development team were working on passkeys in 1Password, we added an exception to localhost:8080 which wasn't removed before shipping the version of 1Password for Safari currently in the App Store. We've since corrected the issue in later releases of 1Password in the browser, so this should be back to normal in the next release of 1Password for Safari. Using any other port for your server should show the Safari prompt again as expected.
