Bank of America app—cannot paste password from 1Password

Today, 28-Jul-2016, there is a new app for Bank of America. I used to be able to copy a password from 1Password and open the Bank of America app and then paste the clipboard's contents into the password field. With the new BofA app, I can no longer make the paste button appear. Using strong passwords, this is a nuisance, as I now have to enter the password by hand.

1Password Version: 6.3.1
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: iOS 9.3.3
Sync Type: Not Provided

    @Lee Roos: Yep. I hate it when they do that. Unfortunately we have no recourse in this situation (besides voicing our concerns to the company). Especially on iOS, the 1Password extension needs to be supported by the app developer, and similarly 1Password has no way of re-enabling paste for us when it is disabled in the app.

    The only alternative that might help is using a Wordlist generated password for the account, so that it is both random and easier to type. It isn't an ideal solution, but it's better than nothing!
