OTP difficult to use via Share Extension

I find OTP to be incredibly difficult to use from the Share Extension.

To do so, I need to:
1. Tap small "i" button
2. Tap OTP to trigger copy
3. Tap "Copy"
4. Tap "< 1Password"
5. Tap "Cancel"
6. Select OTP field on the webpage
7. Hold few seconds to trigger "Paste"
8. Tap "Paste"
9. Tap submit on the web page

Steps 2 through 9 have to be executed quickly before OTP expires..

1Password should offer 2 Share Extensions, one for username/password and another for OTP only. OTP Extension that works similar to username/password extension could eliminate most of the steps.

1Password Version: 6.4.4
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: iOS 10.0.1
Sync Type: iCloud

    Even better, make the extension automatically detect whether the form is asking for OTP or username/password.

    Hi @philkim,

    Thank you for taking the time to write in with your suggestions! Copying/filling an OTP is certainly something we'd like to make easier. I don't know that a second extension would be necessary, as I'm sure we can figure something out with the existing extension, but it's definitely an interesting idea. I'd be happy to forward it to our developers (although I can't make any promises about if/when that will be changed).

    Thanks again for sharing your thoughts on that! If you need anything else, please let us know. Cheers! :)
