Safari stealing focus

I think I have been seeing this issue since upgrading to 1Password 8 - have you had any success with debugging/fixing the issue please?

I have this same issue, but Safari is my default browser. Anytime I unlock 1password, it will bring focus to any Safari window that is open. Disabling integration with Safari would not be ideal as it is my default browser. Is there any other way to prevent this behavior? It happens on multiple Macs for me.

Hello steph_giles

I have also the same problem since a long time (and just lived with it, despite the annoyance).
I often use the cli tool that unlocks via touchID (either directly on the Terminal or by calling from a Clojure Repl in Intellij). Safari then either flashes or pops in front of all windows.

I just tried the workaround above (disabling the integration with the 1Password App) and it seems to work. However unlocking via TouchID is no more possible in Safari (the extension asks for my password).

Can you also add me to the list of affected people? I'd like to know when this is solved.
Thank you! ;)

I’ve also had this issue for months. As mentioned above, also just live with the annoyance. But if it helps raise the priority/impact of this bug, you can add me to the affected list, too.

I am also having this issue. The bigger problem I have with 1Password 8 is that its behavior is not deterministic at all. For example, if I use the keyboar shortcut to login to a website, nothing happens. If I execute the same keyboard command again immediately, it will fill the username and password fields in the browser and log me in. There are other example of non-deterministic behavior. This is maddening when using a computer program. If I can't depend on its behavior it makes the product a chore to use, when it used to be a pleasure 100% of the time.

Hello, stanhbb, 1bvr, npdaaa, Kentzo, frankly. Thanks for writing in.

I've added you all as affected users to our internal reporting and I apologize for the inconvenience.

frankly, it sounds like you're encountering a separate issue as well with Universal Autofill. I recommend sending an email to support+forum@1Password.com so that our support team can help you.

Looking forward to hearing back!

Hey @emix,

I'm sorry for the trouble. In order to try and understand what may be causing the issue can you test it with the integration between the browser and your 1Password app disabled to see if you see the same behaviour, Here's how:

1. Right click the 1Password icon in your browser toolbar
2. Disable 'Integrate with 1Password app'

Let us know how you get on with this so we can see where the issue lies.

In addition, I think if you are able to send a screen recording of the strange behaviour you are seeing this could be helpful. If you would prefer to send this is in an email please send it to support+forum@1password.com with a link to this thread.

Thanks very much!

Hi steph_giles,

thanks for commenting! I'll have a try and will come back when I have news.

Speak soon!

steph_giles it seems that disabling that option didn't mitigate the issue. However if I debug the extension with the Safari Web Inspector when the issue occurs, I get this error. Hope it can help you to identify the issue.

Thanks for the update @emix.

I think it would be useful if we could take a closer look at some logs and what may be going wrong. I'd like to ask you to send over a console log from your browser as well as a diagnostics report:

• Save a console log for 1Password in your browser
• How to send a 1Password diagnostics report

Please attach the reports to an email message addressed to support+forum@1password.com with a link to this thread.
