Watch Tower and Logins
I do not really know how to word this question so I hope you know what I mean.
In my logins most of the websites I enter manually and do not usually use the create login that 1Password picks. So a lot of my logins are like home page and not the direct login.
Silly or not the reason I do that, is the home page link most likely does not change and I know what the URL is.
I was wondering if Watch Tower can do it’s job correctly for breached passwords if I do not use the direct logins even though the home page is the parent of the direct login.
Or do I need to let 1Password create logins pick the website for me. You know does it really matter?
I would like to here your feed back on that.
Thanks

Hi @kunder!

No matter what steps you are using to create your login items, 1Password is checking all of them in Watchtower because what it looks at is the domain of the URL :)

Do I need to include http:// in logins web address or does that happen in the background anyway.
What about www. or can I just xxx.com when filling in a web address in logins.?

1Password will assume the prefix is
https://
unless specified otherwise.What about www. or can I just xxx.com when filling in a web address in logins.?
That depends entirely on the website. Most websites are configured such that they are accessible both with and without the
www
. Using 1Password to save the login from the page's login form will give the best results:Use 1Password to fill and save on your iPhone and iPad
