[Feature request] Improve login suggestions on iOS

in iOS

On iOS, available Logins for a website are shown with just the Item’s Username and the “password for this website” text below it, sorted alphabetically based on the Username (see screenshow below).
It would be much more useful to show the Item’s Title instead (a stronger identifier of the item compared to the username), to allow true user to more easily identify which one to use, and sort the Logins by Item Title.

Right now when I have multiple Login Items saved for the same website, I have to open the 1Password app and check the Username associated with the one Login I currently want to use, and then go back to the login page and select it from the suggested ones.

1Password Version: 8.10.46
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: iOS 17.7
Browser: Not Provided

    Hi there @Luca01

    It would be much more useful to show the Item’s Title instead

    It would! However, that pop-up is drawn by iOS's own Password AutoFill system, not 1Password. iOS requests the username and password fields from 1Password for any items matching the same domain in the website field, but it doesn't request the Title, so we can't pass that over.

    Information has to be "pulled" from 1Password by iOS – we can't "push" it to iOS from 1Password.

    Apple would need to decide to make a change to the way that this pop-up looks. It's not something we can make any changes to from our side.

    You may want to provide Apple this feedback directly: ☞ Product Feedback - Apple

    Let me know if you have any questions! :)

    @GreyM1P Oh I see, well that's unfortunate. Thanks for clarifying the reason behind it!
    I just wrote a feedback on Apple's website, let's hope it won't simply be ignored.
    Do you as developers also have a way of reaching out to Apple to suggest stuff like this?

    Thanks for submitting the feedback to Apple, that's the best way to request changes to how iOS AutoFill works. Hopefully improvements are added in future versions of iOS.
