Easier way to change the existing account email to Masked Email
Comments

Thanks for the clarification @Manaburner ,
As I mentioned, the new masked email feature is currently only useable when signing up for new websites, not for when you want to change an email address of an existing account.
However, we're looking into how we can add that feature to also work for changing emails in existing accounts :)

@AndrewParker You can still generate masked emails directly in Fastmail and manually use them in 1Password, which would work the same except it will take a couple of extra clicks :)
When you sign up for a new website, 1Password will do the job for you, but when you want to change an existing login's email address, create a masked email directly in your Fastmail account and add it to your login entry in 1Password.

The problem is that most of the time the masked email IS your user name, there is not a separate entry. Plus. when you create a masked email, there is no way to automatically copy it even if you are in the app to make it your username. Is that clear? This happens over and over.

I switched from LastPass to 1Password specifically for this feature, but it certainly lacks in functionality. If the prompt doesn't show up on a registration form, there is no way to generate a masked email. I would like to manually trigger this, or have the option in the extension or native app.

Hey @cmeury! I agree that having a way to generate masked emails outside of the sign up form is important. I will share your thoughts on this with our developers. Hopefully this is something that we can improve on in the future.
Please don't hesitate to reach out again if you have any other questions!
