1Password 8 iPadOS (iOS) Safari extension does not save selected vault

Jamsk

Thanks for tagging me. 🙂 You're right that 1Password for Safari on the iPhone and iPad doesn't currently include a way to limit suggestions to a single collection. The "Show filling suggestions" option that you see under AutoFill settings in the main 1Password app only applies when using Password AutoFill to fill logins: Use 1Password to fill and save in apps and browsers on your iPhone and iPad

The Safari extension included with 1Password 7 for iOS also didn't include an option to limit suggestions to only certain vaults.

For the moment, these are the best options:

1. Archive items in the shared vaults that you don't need for day-to-day use. Archiving the items will prevent them from being suggested by 1Password in the browser.
2. Use Password AutoFill to fill logins rather than the Safari extension since Password AutoFill will honour the "Show filling suggestions" setting and only use the collection that you've selected there.

I do agree that it would be useful to be able to limit suggestions to an account or collection when using 1Password for Safari and I've filed a feature request on your behalf so that the product team can look into adding this feature.

Why does the 1Password 8 iOS Safari extension not remember which vault you want it to search? If I change it in the extension, I'd hope it would keep to that vault setting until I change it again and/or use the Default Vault setting from the main app (at least as the initial starting point).

Would you still want this behaviour if, in the future, 1Password for Safari gave you the ability to permanently restrict suggestions to a certain collection? Personally, when I select a vault from the extension pop-up when searching I don't want 1Password to remember the vault selection permanently because then I'd need to continually adjust which vault I'm searching from. Let me know and I can forward your feedback on this as well.

I also wanted to pass along a big thank you for being with 1Password for so many years! We really appreciate that you've stuck with us for so long across so many different versions. We're thankful for the feedback that you provide as a long-time user. We're continually developing 1Password 8 and plan to add many more improvements and new features: Building a Better, More Useful 1Password
