Update about Autofill improvements in Beta

Hi folks!

Thank you to everyone that has taken the time to download our beta extension and give the alternative algorithm a try!

It’s important to recognize that 1Password, specifically the Authentication team that leads the Filling and Saving experience, has an important role for improving the overall day-to-day experience of our customers. The alternative algorithm definitely has that potential in the future. However, with "Advanced URL Matching" still in active development, as well as numerous other improvements we have planned for the near future, I strongly believe we will be releasing new features and improvements that have had their value proven to our customers and will substantially improve the overall Filling and Saving experience for everyone. Those priorities and sheer volume of improvements are the right investment which was the core reason we decided to deprioritize development of the alternative algorithm at this time.

I encourage all of our beta extension users to keep it installed as they will have first crack at some truly amazing features and innovations coming soon.

I think DenalB said it best:
"I think it is a good start for the improved autofill behavior. Please take your time... I'm looking forward to an improved autofill behavior later this year."

Best regards,
Travis Hogan
