Hello chasbenh! 👋

Thank you for reaching out! To see the same passwords on both your computer and your iPhone you'll need to make sure that 1Password is installed and setup in both places. It sounds like you've already installed 1Password on your computer, download and install 1Password on your iPhone as well:

Once 1Password for iOS is installed, setup 1Password to work with Password AutoFill so that you can save and fill logins in other apps on your iPhone:

  1. On the Home screen of your iPhone, tap Settings.
  2. Tap Passwords > Password Options.
  3. Turn on AutoFill Passwords and Passkeys.
  4. Select 1Password.
  5. Turn off any other password managers.

Then try to fill your login again using this guide: Use 1Password to fill and save on your iPhone and iPad

Let me know if you run into any issues.
