Logging into password protected iPhone apps

How can we direct 1Password to log into the dedicated iPhone app as opposed to the Safari website? On an iPhone you sometimes want the optimized for iPhone screen, and other times you want the normal web based look. Assuming we have a choice, how you toggle back and forth? Does the Charles Schwab mobile app work yet with 1password? Thanks.

    Good question, GD. Apple actually makes it impossible for any iOS app to integrate with another iOS app. So it is not possible for 1Password for iOS to integrate with any other iOS app. For this reason, we've built in a full-featured, tabbed browser directly into 1Password for filling Logins, Credit Cards, and Identities directly.

    When it comes to other iOS apps, you will need to copy and paste your password into them, but this is much easier with 1Password for a couple of reasons:

    1. The Action Bar makes copying a password a simple swipe and tap.
    2. Auto-clearing of the clipboard means that you don't have to worry about your passwords "floating about" after you paste them into another app.

    I hope that helps. Please let me know.
