Opening 1Password in Chrome is very slow
I don't know what's going on but this morning I was not able to open click the 1Password by clicking on the Chrome browser extension icon. I clicked and clicked and nothing happened. I verified that my Chrome was up to date. I killed Chrome and opened it again. I launched the 1Password application on my Mac and it came up fine. I also could not get 1P to suggest passwords in a login page. I had to copy and paste from the 1P application into the login form. I was about to reboot my MacBook but then it just started working. I've noticed a sluggishness recently, but this morning it seemed completely broken. I also noticed when it wasn't working in the login page form, there wasn't even a 1P icon in the entry field. Seems to be working again. I will be keeping an eye on things.
Any suggestions on what to try if this happens again?
1Password Version: 8.10.56
Extension Version: 8.10.55.2
OS Version: macOS 14.6.1
Browser: Chrome

It appears that the 1Password extension for Chrome is now working, at least on my end.
- Chrome has been updated to version 131.0.6778.140.
- The 1Password extension is now at version 8.10.56.28.
- The others remain the same.Iโm not sure whether this improvement is due to changes from Google or 1Password.
There is still some noticeable latency (up to 2 seconds) after clicking the extension icon, but itโs acceptable for me.

1Password has always been pretty peppy, popping up quickly when I click the icon in Chrome. Lately, it has been acting weird. Just tonight I was on the Mariot site trying to log in. You can see in the screenshot that the 1P icons were not showing up in the login forms. When I clicked the Chrome extension icon it said "1Password has access to this site" under the icon, and nothing happened. All of a sudden is popped up and thing were back to normal again. Since I had not restarted my Mac in quite a long while I decided to reboot it. It seems to be working like normal now. I will do what you suggested above if it happens again. Thanks for responding to my post.

I solved this by switching from Chrome to Brave. Both are built on Chromium, so, feature wise, very similar. Both have a profiles capability. There are one or two fiddly differences, but nothing I seem to care about. And, 1Password works at full speed!!! Just like the old days ;-)

I'm having the same issue. Has been happening for the past couple of weeks. It's infuriating when it won't respond after years of seamless integration. I have removed my chrome profile and just installed 1password and it stills messes up. Just moved to Edge because I got so fed up. Seems to be working ok in Edge.

I sent my response also.
The issue I'm seeing now is a "very slow" response, not a "no response".
The first time I open a window, it takes maybe 10 seconds for 1Password dialog to open, in response to clicking the extension icon in the toolbar.
Subsequent clicks "only" take 4 or 5 seconds..This is very painful!!
I don't think it is the fault of 1Password. I have a Workona account, that also has a service worker, and it also has the same issue.
Google broke Chrome, or, changed the behaviour in unexpected ways.
