Why does my password change when I save an entry?

Hi!

I created a new entry in my 1Password app on my iPhone, a web site login, and I had 1Password create a secure password. Then I saved the new entry.

When I go back and look at the entry and reveal the password, it's a different password than the one it originally set up.

Any idea why it does this? Any fix/workaround?


1Password Version: 7.7
Extension Version: N/A
OS Version: iOS 14.4
Sync Type: iCloud

    BTW, the exact same issue happens on my wife's iPhone. I can replicate it consistently. Let me know if you want a video of it.

    Hi @marck!

    I created a new entry in my 1Password app on my iPhone, a web site login, and I had 1Password create a secure password. Then I saved the new entry.

    I did exactly the same on my iPhone 12 Pro Max with iOS 14.4 installed.

    When I go back and look at the entry and reveal the password, it's a different password than the one it originally set up.

    I'm not able to reproduce this issue. I tried to create more than 1 account in that way you described above. But when revealing the saved password it is always the random password I generated with 1Password.

    The only thing that is different is that I'm using a 1Password membership. :(
