Thanks for the reply. The screenshot that you posted of your "On Other Devices" from iOS Settings looks right to me and it's what I see on my own iPhone. I'm happy that you're using 1Password 8 on all of your devices. 🙂

Also, while im here discussing the extension (as opposed to creating another thread) is the intent to keep autofill enabled AND use the extension in tandem? If noticed sometimes i presented with the built in system option to autofill above the keyboard as well as the extension in the fillbox at the same time. Not sure if i like it doubling up like that so before I make any decision I want to make sure that it is intended/ideal have settings configured like this PLUS the extension enabled?

I'm sorry for the confusion. In Safari itself, I'd recommend using the extension. 1Password for Safari features greatly improved filling capabilities and offers an experience that is similar to what you're already used to with 1Password for the browser on the desktop. Not only does it use 1Password's powerful filling brain to better detect fields on websites but it also includes support for things like masked email aliases, on-page password suggestions, the filling and saving of credit cards and addresses, and more.

You'll still want to keep iOS AutoFill turned on so that you can save and fill logins in other iOS apps since 1Password for Safari won't work there.

Let me know if you have any questions.
