Using 1Password on iOS 7.1.1 Question

MRomine

I've been a long time user of 1Password on my Mac and I love how it instigates with my Safari browser with a 1Password icon in the toolbar. I can not figure out how to configure 1Password to work in a similar way with Safari on iOS for my iPad. In the settings for 1Password I have the Safari for iPad selected but that does not seem to do anything. I was trying to find some info on the agilebits.com website on how to configure 1Password to use it within the Safari browser for iOS. Can this be done?

Thx

Hi @MRomine‌

I am sorry to say that due to the sandboxing of apps on iOS, Apple does not provide developers with a way to directly interface with other apps. Unless the app has included support for 1Password explicitly, we cannot do anything (like filling) in another app. These sandboxing restrictions also prohibit 1Password from providing browser extensions for mobile browsers. This is why we have 1Browser available within the 1Password app: to allow you to take advantage of 1Password's stored information and filling capabilities.

Currently to log into other apps such as the Facebook native app, you need to copy and paste from the 1Password app. 1Password makes this easy as you can simply tap on the username or password to copy it. 1Password will then clear out the clipboard within a given time period to ensure that your important information does not stay in the clipboard after you no longer have a need for it. You can check out Apps that love 1Password to see which apps have added 1Password integration into their interface.
