Sorry if I am missing the obvious and I could have sworn this was a feature already but when filling in a new site it would be great to be able to generate the password right there.
Right...

3 years agoHi @alfrednutile and @dkardell,
There are a couple options for generating a password with 1Password 8, the first is using the password generator built into the 1Password browser extension:
From there, you can also save your preferred password parameters for suggested passwords in your browser:
Those suggestions will appear in your browser when registering new accounts:
Outside of the browser extension, you can click the blue + New Item
button in the top right of the 1Password 8 Mac app and select Login
or Password
. Clicking the password field on the new item will give you to option to generate a password:
All that said, I understand there are some scenarios where it may be useful to have a password generator built into Quick Access, and tracking for this feature is ongoing. I've added a vote on behalf of both of you and appreciate you taking the time to tell us it's important to you.
I hope these suggestions helped, let me know if you have any questions. 🙂
