When I setup an account the 1P app does not suggest as password, but I am lost as to where to find the password generator to create one and then manually copy it to satisfy the installation and registration.

1Password Version: 1Password for 8
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: iOS 16.3.1
Browser:_ Safari

    Hello @bobsully! 👋

    If you're setting up an account for a website open in Safari for the first time then you can use 1Password for Safari to automatically suggest and save a secure password: Get to know 1Password for Safari on your iPhone or iPad

    If you're creating an account using another browser or app then you can follow these steps:

    1. Make sure that Password AutoFill is enabled for 1Password: Use 1Password to fill and save in apps and browsers on your iPhone and iPad
    2. Navigate to the website or app's sign-up page.
    3. Tap on the password field.
    4. Tap on the "Passwords" prompt above your keyboard and unlock 1Password.
    5. Tap on the + button in the lower right corner.
    6. Type in your username and have 1Password generate a secure password.
    7. Tap Save & Fill
    8. Finish setting up the account in the website or app.

    I hope that helps! 🙂
