MAC OS and Rich Icons? What are best practices? How can I turn them off?

I was under the impression it was better on a Mac OS to not have Rich Icons. I notice on my Mac that Rich Icons are now populating - previously I had them turned off, but can no longer find out how t...

Thank you for the reply. When you turned "Show app and website icons" on using 1Password on your iPhone and you saw rich icons appear in the Mac app, were the icons visible in the normal item list in the centre column? Or in the list of search results?

We're aware of an issue where rich icons will display for search results even if "Show app and website icons" is turned off and I'm wondering if this might be an explanation for what you see.

Question 1: I installed 1P on the FireFox browser. In the article, "1Password in the browser" it states that as of 1/3/24, "When you set up the 1Password browser extension in Firefox for the first time, you’ll now see an additional option to enable or disable app and website icons". I did not see this choice. *What is it about and where can I find it? *

This behaviour will be introduced with version 2.19.0 of 1Password in the browser which isn't available for Firefox just yet. Our team is working to get the update released as soon as possible.

Question 2: I also received this 1Password Notification: "For a better browsing experience, competing sign-in popups are now hidden. 1Password now hides competing sign-in prompts while browsing so you can use your saved credentials. You can view and update this in the extension settings." ** What does this mean? And where in settings** [System Settings? Safari Settings? FireFox Settings?] *is it located? * I did look in all the latter but didn't find anything related.

You can find the setting here:

  1. Open Firefox.
  2. Right-click on the 1Password icon in the browser's toolbar and click Settings.
  3. Click Autofill.

The setting is designed to suppress sign-in prompts from other services to reduce confusion and to prevent them from conflicting with 1Password.
