Editing a Password Automatically Deletes the Old One

FuriousFan

Hey, trying 1Password to see if I want to use it instead of eWallet. When I try to edit a password on my iPhone or iPad, as soon as I start typing it clears the old password field. Is there a way to change this behaviour in case all I want to do is modify an existing PW?

Thanks!

Hi @FuriousFan,

Thanks for taking the time to write in with this question. I tested on my own devices and was able to see the behavior you are describing. I'll file this with our development team as an improvement request.

Thanks!

It has been like that sense I started using 1Password. Very good point. If you take a long time on picking a generated password like I do then the website times out by the the time you pick a new password. Then your only option might be to click on previously used passwords in the login field.

@kunder: Indeed! This has happened to me more times than I care to admit...usually because I get sidetracked with something else for a while!

It may also help to cancel the Edit outright. But the password history is a good fallback option if it is gone completely. Cheers! :)
