Unnecessary "Save Login" panel
I often get an alert saying "To save a login, unlock 1Password first." - right after I use 1PW to fill in login credentials. This makes no sense - first, I just unlocked 1PW to get it to fill in the...

Thank you for confirming that and for posting the screenshot of the prompt. This is a known issue that can occur when you use the 1Password for Mac desktop app's Universal Autofill feature (Command-Backslash) when 1Password for Safari (the browser extension) is also installed. Our development team is currently investigating and I've added your report to the internal work item open with the team.
For the time being, until the issue is resolved, I recommend the following workaround:
- Open your browser.
- Right-click the 1Password icon in the toolbar, then choose "Settings".
- In the "Notifications" section, turn off "Allow 1Password to show unlock notifications".
I'm sorry for the disruption, hopefully this is fixed soon.-Dave

I'm having the same problem recently where the Save Login modal appears when I hit Command-\ on websites where I already have a working login saved in 1 Password. Then the modal stays in the upper right until I manually close it. This never used to be a problem until maybe 3-4 weeks ago...?
EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
No notice at all (or, at most, a quick confirmation modal that slides back out within seconds). I've got a working login and I'm not updating it, so there's no reason for a request to save the login or do anything.
SPECS
I'm running latest 1Password for Mac 8.10.72 with Universal Autofill selected and Safari ext 8.10.70.27 on Safari 18.4 / MacOS 15.4.1.
