Hello LokiNYC! 👋

Thanks for reaching out. Two-page login pages (where the username and password are split across two different pages) seem to cause iOS Password AutoFill some trouble when it comes to detecting username fields in third-party browsers on iOS like Chrome. Password AutoFill is the iOS feature that 1Password relies on to detect and fill logins in browsers and other iOS apps. Since 1Password only provides the data for the Password AutoFill experience this isn't something that we can directly improve and the behaviour will be common to all password managers that use Password AutoFill.

I recommend reporting the issue to the Chrome development team so that they can investigate why iOS Password AutoFill isn't detecting username fields on certain pages in their browser.

You might have better luck using Password AutoFill in Safari on those same pages. We also have a browser extension for Safari which offers a similar filling experience to what you're used to on the desktop: Get to know 1Password for Safari on your iPhone or iPad

I hope that helps. 🙂
