    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.

    -Dave

The built in iOS Autofill is not a good enough replacement for this functionality. This is a major regression in UX and I won’t be keeping my subscription if we’re expected to rely on the iOS Autofill. At that point I’ll just use the Passwords app since I already pay for iCloud.

The built in iOS Autofill not only takes extra taps, but is also a much worse experience when I have multiple accounts for the same domain with different services on each subdomain or port. Even something as basic as my item’s name isn’t rendered until 2 menus deep when it pulls up the full 1Password view.
