Captive portals

How can I engage 1password features when logging in wifi captive portals? Is it working?

@armybot: This can be a bit confusing. If the Wi-Fi portal is an actual webpage accessible within Safari or 1Browser, then you can probably use 1Password (or its extension) to login. However, if it's the type which iOS opens a login form over the current app (e.g. these will come up over the Settings app as well if you're connecting there) then 1Password (or any other app) cannot interact with it — and you can't interact with the app until it's dismissed. In that case you'd need to copy and paste the password.

It's accessible within safari but I can't get how to interact with 1password (I can't see any button, key, link, whatever related). May you help me?

Of course I'm talking about iOS

Have you enabled the 1Password extension in Safari? If not, this excerpt from the user guide will help you:

Enable the extension

Yes Stephen, it's enabled

Thanks, @armybot, then you can read about how to fill login items into it here:

Note that will only apply if the page is actually open in Safari. The iOS Settings app Captive Portal login screen (that Brenty was referring to) looks a lot like Safari but is not.
