Issues with 1Password with Profiles in Safari

I'm just going to leave a "me too" here. I've been living with this issue for ages; this is the first time I've investigated whether it's actually been reported.

I have two (main) Safari profiles:  Personal and Work. I auto-switch to Work profile based on the Work focus. (System Settings → Focus → Work → Focus Filters)

When I'm at work (like right now), 1Password is unlocked in a Safari window with the Work profile enabled. But in the window right next door that's in Personal profile, 1Password is locked.

I can fill passwords in a Personal window, but I constantly get prompted to unlock 1Password.

How is it that 2 years later there is still not a resolution for this issue? Universal auto-fill doesn't always work. Toggling the extension on and off doesn't always work. Why is this issue so difficult to fix when Safari profiles have existed for so long? I really don't understand how anyone at Agilebits can think it's acceptable to just keep posting workarounds rather than fixing the actual root issue.

On behalf of Dave, you're welcome.

Sorry for the late response. That is a very helpful and much appreciated work around!

Thanks!

Thanks praseodym

I've mentioned that idea to the team. I appreciate you sharing it.

Universal Autofill is a good workaround for passwords, but not for websites using Passkeys. With more websites using Passkeys I'm hitting this issue more frequently too.

I'm sorry for missing your ping. I don't have any updates to share at the moment but I did want to offer another suggestion for the time being, have you tried using Universal AutoFill rather than the Safari extension to fill your logins? Follow these steps:

1. Make sure that the 1Password for Mac desktop app is installed: Get the 1Password apps
2. Setup Universal Autofill: Use Universal Autofill in apps and browsers on your Mac
3. Use the Command-Backslash keyboard shortcut to fill logins in any of your Safari profiles.

Let me know if that provides you with a better workaround while we wait for a fix. 🙂

Hi 1P_Dave ,

Do you if any progress has been made on this issue? Unfortunately, it has made using Safari and 1Password so cumbersome even with the work around in place.

Thanks!

With regret, because this is a right pain, I have just cancelled my 1password account, because there is still no sign of any fix for safari profiles, and the broken extension slows me down too much.

I've merged a few threads together in order to keep the conversation in the same place. 🙂

For those who are running into issues with 1Password for Safari please see my post here for a brief explanation of the current state of the situation. Our developers continue to work on this and hopefully the experience is made more stable in the future. As mentioned in my post, turning off app integration should allow you to workaround most of the issues.
