Disable autofill in authenticator applications
I use Microsoft Authenticator, on sites that prompt you to use it to enter a 2-digit number. 1password offers to save that 2-digit number each time - there's no circumstance in which this would be useful!
Is there a way to prevent autofill in these fields? If not, can one be added please?

Thanks for the ping! I'm sorry that you're still seeing the issue, the fix for the issue that I mentioned has already made it into the stable version of 1Password for Android so it sounds like you're running into something a little different.
Please send an email to support@1Password.com with a link to this thread and our team can investigate further to see what might be happening.

Thank you for the screenshots! I can confirm that you're running into a known issue, our developers are currently testing a fix in the latest beta to only prompt to autosave when both username and password fields are present on screen in an app.
Are you willing to see if the beta resolves the issue for you? If you are then you can find instructions here:

1P_Dave Thank you for your patience. There is more than one report of this problem in this forum. Here is the screenshot. Unfortunately, the security settings prevented showing the Microsoft Authenticator App in the background. This is why it is black. Here is the screenshot:
After entering the code, 1password pops again with offering to save the login, which is also false.

I'm sorry for the impact to your workflow. If you can grab a screenshot then that will help me confirm whether you're running into the known issue. If you'd prefer to avoid posting the screenshot on the public forum then you can send it to
support+forum@1Password.comalong with a link to this thread.-Dave
I have the same problem multiple times a day/week when using Microsoft Authenticator for sign-in into my business accounts. This really has to be fixed as quickly as possible. I'll try to take a screenshot as well the next time.

Thank you for clarifying. It sounds like you're running into a known issue that our development team is currently tracking. So that I can confirm this, I'd like to ask you to take a screenshot of what you're seeing and attach it to your reply:

Hi Dave,
Sorry, perhaps I wasn't clear. This is when using the Microsoft Authenticator Android Application. So I will be on a website on my laptop that requires me to MFA using MS Auth - a notification pops up on my phone, I click it, enter a 2-digit number in MS Auth, and then on my phone 1P pops up and offers to save that 2-digit number.
