3 years agoWhen you're not actively editing an item, it makes sense to obscure the password field, since you can still Copy it to the clipboard without having to reveal it first. It's only when you're editing an item or have tapped Reveal on a password field that you'll see the password in plaintext.
In web browsers, password fields are designed to be obscured by the web developer, and 1Password can autofill into those anyway, so there wouldn't be any real need to show it in plaintext there.
