Two steps to Autofill? is This Really Necessary?

Hi @statto1927:

Yes, that's correct. Do you have 1Password in your browser installed? Get started with 1Password in your browser

With 1Password in the browser installed, you should see in-line suggestions, as well as the 1Password icon in the field as Ben's first screenshot shows.

Hi Ben,
So just to be clear (because I'm having the same confusion myself), should the inline menu appear when I place my cursor in a field on a web page? For example on a sign in page with fields for username and password if I click in either field the inline menu should display?
Because it's not happening for me. I have the Taskbar icon active and the main app active, but I don't get the inline menu or indeed anything other than a blinking cursor.

No worries @mountart2. Happy to clarify. What you see in this screenshot is the in-line menu:

And this is the pop-up:

The former is accessed from within a form field on a web page, and the latter is accessed by clicking the 1Password extension icon in your browser's toolbar. I hope that helps!

Thanks for getting back to me. Please excuse my ignorance, but what is 1 Password "Pop-Up" and what is 1 Password "Inline"?

Hey @mountart2:

Thanks for following up on this! If you use the 1Password pop-up, rather than the in-line menu, to fill your Identity in, you won't be prompted:

Hi Wendy, when I click on a field that requires info, like an email address, physical addresses, phone number, etc., 1password always asks to confirm you want to autofill the field (see attachment). Why? I wouldn't be clicking in the box if I didn't want 1password to autofill in. I really see this as an extra time-wasting step. And just to compare other websites' ease of use, all the major web browsers allow you to click once to autofill.

Hello @mountart2! 👋

I'm sorry to hear that you're running into an issue when filling logins into websites. Can you clarify what the two steps are? When I open a website's login page I see 1Password's inline filling menu appear:

I can then fill my login information by clicking on the Login item suggestion in the menu. I look forward to hearing from you. 😊
