    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

Would also like to see this. I don't fully get why there's so much resistance to add support for these APIs when the same APIs work fine on iOS. I want to cut out Keychain, but the 2FA autofill is very very nice. Now that it's possible to have them fill from third party managers, I want to migrate the remaining bits to 1P.

A small voice in my head is telling me this may partly due to the architecture of the mac app being in Electron instead of native ObjC/Swift, so even trivial APIs like this will need a bunch of glue/wrapper code to actually work
