Native Password AutoFill Extension macOS

So one of the people in my family subscription for 1P relies heavily on iCloud Keychain. The nice piece about using the native autofill extension is entries from both show up together in-line. This h...

    Hello folks,

    The macOS AutoFill feature is now being explored in the nightly version of 1Password! If you're using a nightly build, you'll see 1Password appear as an option for macOS AutoFill.

    Since nightly builds are early previews of what we're working on, this feature is still a work in progress and isn't documented. You might notice a few rough edges or areas that aren't fully implemented just yet. Our team is actively refining the experience and working through known issues as we move forward.

    We're excited about where this is headed and will share more updates, and a full announcement, down the line. In the meantime, if you have questions or spot anything unexpected while using the nightly version, we'd love to hear from you!

    -Dave

Passkeys, passkeys, passkeys... you can't fill passkeys without *native* Autofill. I've used 1password for as long as you've been a company and you've added a lot of features that make me want to continue using it... but... the world is going password-less and the basic feature you offer is becoming less compelling by the day.

Please add  native AutoFill ASAP. At the moment I've got Passkey's in both Apple Passwords and 1Password and they have a grudge match every time I focus a username field in Safari. Please end my misery.

    Thank you for the feature request! I've shared it with the team. 

    For the time being, you can save and sign in using passkeys in Safari by following these steps: 

    1. Turn off the built-in password manager: Turn off the built-in password manager in your browser
    2. Make sure that 1Password for Safari is installed: Download 1Password for your browser


    I don't recommend using multiple password managers at the same time since you can run into conflicts and duplicated items.

      What a recommendation... it seems to be the equivalent of a doctor telling the patient "Don't do that" after he's showed what causes him pain.

      As I said originally, you cannot use 1password for Passkey's in native apps and we have this requirement for a couple things. So, sorry Doc... I have to do that.

      You guys need to bite the bullet and implement this, but at this rate all my passwords will be Passkey's in the Passwords app before you realize your mistake.

      Seriously, it's a little concerning that you guys haven't realized this. Your entire market is shifting under your feet and you seem to be hoping we all are akin to CD purists as the world of music went online... without the fun music to argue about.

      Nobody want's passwords, passkeys are the answer, and you guys need to make 1password available to your customers on all the platforms or the free Passwords app, which works on all of the Apple devices and the web, becomes a better solution.. for free.
