#ME-271 feedback: Inline menu hidden in Safari

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 put...

    Hello 1bvr​! 👋

    Thanks for your feedback and for helping test the 1Password beta. When 1Password is set as your system autofill provider on iOS, beginning with the current beta version, the inline menu in the Safari extension is hidden to prevent conflicts between the two filling experiences. More broadly, supporting both the browser extension and native Autofill has sometimes led to a fragmented experience. We’re focusing on making native Autofill on iOS the primary way to fill, while the Safari extension continues to add features that go beyond it.

    If you'd like to continue to exclusively use 1Password for Safari to fill your logins, then you can turn off native autofill (however this will turn off native autofill for all apps): 

    1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
    2. Tap General > AutoFill & Passwords.
    3. Turn off AutoFill Passwords and Passkeys.


    This is an early step, and your feedback will help shape how we move forward. We appreciate you taking the time to share it.

    Hi Dave,

    Thanks for responding to my feedback. That is disappointing news to hear, for the reasons I mentioned previously.

    I also noticed that since this change, nearly every credential that is autofilled by the native autofill in Safari generates a prompt asking me to save the password even though the password is already saved. If I tap "Save," it then offers to "update" the credential in 1Password. But the password being saved is the same password that 1Password just autofilled through the native autofill.
