#ME-271 feedback: Inline menu hidden in Safari on iOS when system AutoFill is enabled
Hello,
I recently noticed that a lot of login forms were no longer showing the 1Password drop-down to select a credential. I believe it is related to this change referenced in the title.
Simply p...
Hello 1bvr! 👋
Thank you for reaching out about this! When 1Password is set as your system autofill provider on iOS, the inline menu in the Safari extension is now hidden to prevent conflicts between the two filling experiences.
iOS 26 introduced enhancements to AutoFill, including support for strong password generation. This allows 1Password to integrate more deeply with iOS, enabling features like creating strong passwords and filling or saving login credentials directly through AutoFill on your iPhone and iPad.
At the same time, we’ve encountered some unavoidable conflicts between iOS AutoFill and the browser extension that don’t currently have a technical solution. We’re working closely with Apple to explore ways to resolve these issues in the future. In the meantime, we’re focusing on making native AutoFill on iOS the primary way to fill, while the Safari extension continues to provide additional capabilities beyond it.
Your feedback will help shape how we move forward. We appreciate you taking the time to share it.

Well...that would have been good to be proactively communicated! I've run into the same issue also with the save password stuff down in the thread.
Why are such changes not communicated?

ModeratorYou can find the change mentioned in our release notes, which are published to both the App Store and our website.
That being said, I'll share your feedback with the team so that we can explore other ways to notify folks about changes like this in the future. Thank you for the feedback!

You mean:
- We’ve made improvements to how 1Password interacts in form fields in the upcoming releases of Safari.

You can find the release note here: https://releases.1password.com/ios/stable/#1password-for-ios-8.12.10
That said, we can definitely do a better job communicating changes like this, and we’ll look into more effective ways to handle this in the future.

This release note is really a joke. Maybe also reflect your own way of communicating and treating this. This is really a huge change in the way it’s working and as you can see users are struggling - I guess most of the users are not even aware what is going on and are just frustrated.
Getting a „we’ve communicated it“ so what is the matter is really - well you can imagine can’t you?
But the best part of it: it even doesn’t work consistently like it should as with most new functions you are implementing.
Pride comes before a fall.
I strongly suggest a quality initiative. Reduce functions that are really needed and used by most and implement them consistently and working across all platforms. One prominent example: collections.
The "Tips" section on the Home screen, or an in-app pop-up after the update, would have been great here! I requested that 1Password support the strong password generation feature of system autofill back in January, but I had no idea this was actually implemented until I stumbled across this thread. Cheers, Dave!
