With 1Password, one can easily access Amazon via Safari and get logged on.
Is there a similar way to log on to Amazon app?

    @gpsvn‌ Unfortunately no. Despite all the improvements made to iOS, apps are still very restricted. With iOS 8 there generic extensions made available to Safari that any app could implement. Between 3rd party apps though each one has to enable another's extension for use in their app, so Amazon would need to enable the 1Password extension in theirs. As you can see, it puts the onus on each developer as to what extensions they wish to be usable in their app. 1Password's developers did come up with the idea of a generic extension that any password manager could use as a hook but I don't know what traction that has had yet.
