    I don't know if this is the same issue, but when I try "+ New Item" from the Safari extension toolbar icon, it sends me to the web app rather than 1Password 8.

    Details: "1 Password for Safari" 2.1.0, 1P 8.2.2 80202072.

  • Hi @a.jaffe

    That's a different case. :) At present 1Password in the Browser always directs new item creation to 1Password.com, rather than the desktop apps. We haven't implemented a link between the two for new item creation, yet. Hopefully that is something we'll be able to do in the future. :+1:

    Hi Ben,

    Ok -- this is a much worse experience than previously for this case. Please do implement this. (Is this discussed elsewhere? It is such a big change that I'm surprised it hasn't been covered more!)

  • Thanks @a.jaffe. I agree; it would be nice to use the desktop app for this instead of 1Password.com. I'm not aware of any other discussions about this off-hand, but I have filed your feedback with the team.

    There's an inconsistency here. If you generate a password and select autofill, it will attempt to create the entry without opening 1password.com, but if you open the popup and click "new" it opens the website.

    I too prefer to avoid 1password.com.

    We appreciate this, @yardarm_playpen. Thanks for your feedback! We'll do our best to make the flow between (and within) apps as intuitive and consistent as possible. Thanks for highlighting this.
