Hello yyynnn42! 👋

Thanks for reaching out. Unlike other browsers, Safari on both macOS and iOS clears the data that browser extensions store and use when you clear your browsing history. After you clear your browsing history, 1Password for Safari thinks that it's just been installed since it doesn't see any existing data and it will show the welcome screen. As far as I'm aware, there isn't anyway for 1Password for Safari, or other browser extensions, to persist data when you clear browsing history.

Out of curiosity, is there a reason why you're clearing your browser history so often? I can pass along your feedback and experience to our Product team so that they consider consider possible improvements for the future and would like to add that detail.
