Can anyone tell me how to copy a password (or other text) in 1PW for iOS on iPhone and paste it into another iPhone app?

And how to go back to 1PW without having to re-enter the 1PW master password?

thanks, Simonides

    Tap on the password field that you want to copy and then tap copy. Switch to the other app, tap in the password field, and then tap paste.

    And how to go back to 1PW without having to re-enter the 1PW master password?

    Turning off 1Password > Settings > Security > Lock on Exit should do it. :+1:

    I hope that helps. Should you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to ask.

    And if you have 1PW7 on iOS 12, Apple's new autofill procedure means you don't actually have to go into 1PW to fill a password in a browser. Of course, you may have other reasons for wanting to copy a password.

    Use 1Password to fill and save on your iPhone and iPad
