Before I submit this as a bug…. User name prefilled when creating a new login.
When I go to create a new login, the user name is prefilled with an email address I haven’t used in years. This shouldn’t have any email address, especially when I use Fastmail’s masked emails. I hop...
Hello prime! 👋
I'm sorry that you're running into issues when creating a new login item using 1Password for iOS. When you create a new Login item, 1Password will now automatically fill your email address in the username field and generate a password. Username suggestions are based on the vault that you’re creating a new item in and are suggested based on previous use.
The team is continuing to iterate on this feature and I've shared your feedback regarding the friction that you're running into as a user of our Fastmail integration. We hope to introduce improvements to this workflow in the future.
For the time being, only 1Password in the browser (our browser extension) currently supports the Fastmail integration when creating new Login items.

Username suggestions are based on the vault that you’re creating a new item in. Is it possible that the vault that you're creating the item in has login items that use that old email address?
I found 1 out of 357 items. I also just moved it to the archive.
The team is considering a few different options to better accommodate different use cases, including Fastmail integration and I'm happy to pass along your feedback.
Thank youOut of curiosity, would having 1Password automatically generate a new Fastmail masked email alias in the username field be something that you'd find useful?
No, because I make up my own aliases and have fun. For instance; for Subway I can have footlong@mydomain.com, Costco I have bigstore@mydomain.com, and so on. Since I got my domain, I rarely use the Masked Emails anymore.
Or do you just prefer an option to turn the automatic suggestion off entirely?
Yes, I would like an option to turn it off. There are some features I don’t use, but as long as it’s not in my way, I don’t care. This one is definitely in my way.
