Cannot find globe button for 1Password built-in browser on iPad Pro

I’m probably going crazy, but I can’t find the built-in 1Password browser button with the globe icon on my iPad Pro.

The only way for me to return to open tabs is to go into a new tab from an existing 1P entry URL. Not as clear.

Could you point this out to me? I still see the button on the iPhone version so I guess this is specific to iPads or iPad Pros.

1Password Version: 7.0.5
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: iOS 11.2.6
Sync Type: Dropbox

    You're not going crazy. It's gone. We're de-emphasizing 1Browser in favor of Safari with the 1Password extension:

    Use the 1Password extension to fill in Safari and apps on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

    The only way for me to return to open tabs is to go into a new tab from an existing 1P entry URL. Not as clear.

    You can also press and hold on the tab bar at the bottom of 1Password in order to bring up 1Browser.

    If you're running the latest version you shouldn't see it. Please check that you're up to date. :)

    I appreciate the information. For some time now I noticed that I was unable to access the globe as well. I kept putting off contacting 1Password for answers. Now I know how to access it. I appreciate the question and response.

    Hello, I am a longtime 1PW user, and recently had to move to iOS11 despite not wishing to. I was very disappointed and frustrated to find that I can no longer access the browser using the drag-up button in 1PW. Why did it get removed?? I used it a lot, especially to go in/out of the browser when copying passwords or other account info, then going back into the browser. Now I cannot access the browser at all unless I select the HELP link in Settings. This SUCKS

    Sorry but that is unintuitive and just downright dumb. Bring back the browser button.

    I agree — a really dumb “improvement “/change. (I can use Safari when I choose to do so.) Bring back the globe!

    Thanks for the feedback. We don't have plans to bring back a dedicated button though, because:

    • There's an app for that! The 1Password extension for iOS lets you use 1Password in an actual full-featured web browser — like Chrome, Opera, Safari, Firefox, Firefox Focus, and probably others I'm forgetting; there are a lot.
    • Most people use 1Browser by tapping URLs in their login items.
    • You can still tap and hold on the bottom to open 1Browser too.

    Cheers! :)
