4 years agoPassword generator in 1Password 8 Quick Access
Hello!
I have just updated to 1Password 8 and I am very happy about it :)
One small annoyance I found is the missing password generator -- previously I could click on the menubar icon and there ...

@SegeiCMeerkat thanks for your hints.
I was not aware of the menu next to the search field in the browser extension, wich offers a password generator
Unfortunately, there is no password generator in the Quick Access control which can be startet from MacOS's system menu
.
Also, I cannot find a password generator in 1password for iOS / iPadOS apps (except in the menu to create a new login/password). Especially, when you are registering a new login (user name and password) for an iOS app, which does not support / recognize password managers like 1password, you have to switch to the 1password app, create a new login there and then copy and paste newly created the user name and than, again, the newly created password.
Wouldn't it be much easier, if I quickly could generate a password for this app while 1password 'remembers' this password (new login entry or save in clipboard). Then I register with the new user name and the newly created password. Then I switch to 1password and create / finalize the new login entry.
Am I missing something there, too?
