4 years agoSafari extension often loses connection to 1password
Since a while and also with the latest beta release 80400053 my 1password extension for Safari (15.1) often stops working.
It always looks like 1password was locked. When really locked it still red...

3 years agoHey @jeidd, 1Password for Safari maintains a connection to our encrypted servers (we call it the IDBDatabase Connection) which allows its functions to work properly. However, if your browser's cache, cookies, or history is cleared, that database connection is wiped, and the extension may not work (until you restart the browser or sign in again).
Are you able to adjust your workflow a bit and not clear your browsing datas often? I did test the filling on "my.nextdns.io" when Safari's browsing data is not cleared, and things do work well. Instead of clearing your browsing data, I recommend https://support.apple.com/guide/safari/browse-privately-ibrw1069/mac, which would not save the details of your browsing history, and then use 1Password from there.
