Safari Extension Started Asking For Password For Every Auto Fill [SOLVED]
.
I've been using 1P8 for some time without any auto fill issues. All of a sudden today, the iOS Safari Extension started wanting me to manually enter my password for an auto fill anytime Safari was closed and re-opened. I've always had the "Authorize After" Safari Extension setting set to "1 Week".
I tried disabling the Safari Extension, rebooting the phone and reenabling the Safari Extension. I then tried disabling auto fill on both 1P8 and iOS settings, rebooting the phone and then reenabling. Neither of which worked. I ended up having to completely uninstall and reinstall of 1P8, which was annoying, and that worked.
Is there anything else that can be done if this happens again? Is this a known issue?
1Password Version: 8.9.3
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: iOS 15.6.1
Browser:_ Safari
WorldIRC Something I’m interested to learn as well, but we don’t have it with 1Password either. Lol
Data breaches do not bother me as they happen to LOTS of companies and I use a double-blind password system, so my full password is never in my password manager.
The pricing hikes scare me more, as Dashlane did this, which is why I went to 1P.
Does any other password manager offer a Safari Extension
dtoub — thank you for such a comprehensive post, I wholeheartedly echo all of your points.
netnothing — my next option would be Bitwarden. Admittedly, they do not have a full iOS/iPadOS Safari extension. Apart from that, their features are comparable with 1P (and at a lower cost), they appear to have good, consistent feedback and a transparent, international-first security policy. They seem to focus on getting the basics right first, something vital for such an important utility, and what 1P appear to be losing.
Orlandoech — personally, I would stay away from LastPass. They have a record of security breaches and are prone to wild changes in pricing and feature strategy. I’m also not a fan of their apps UI, particularly on desktop.
AMonitorDarkly Thanks for the feedback. I had never heard of them until someone on here posted about them.
For now, I'm re-installed 1PW7 alongside 1PW8. Seems to be working to keep the Safari extension unlocked so far.
Several days on and its still being treated like it’s a non-issue and a workaround that has been repeatedly rebuffed as a fix (mainly because it doesn’t even workaround the problem) is still be suggested. Just like more_cowbell my renewal is coming up soon, December and honestly, with the mess of 1P8 across Mac and iOS, I am extremely hesitant to hand over anymore of my hard earned cash. Especially in the times of high inflation and cost of living. 10 years I’ve been using 1Password, I’ve never had a reason to complain, but the quality of the app has degraded so much and with so many other competitors out there, is there a reason to stay?
1P_Dave yet another 1Password team member that is clearly NOT reading the posts. Stop posting useless workarounds that no loner work at all because you completely broke with the last update and FIX this permanently.
I have about 1 month to my renewal which I will NOT be doing if this trend continues. Pathetic showing from a software company I once loved.
Who can we tag to start getting more visibility on this?
netnothing I found Keeper to be extremely slow in adopting new features. Back TouchID came about, they refused to implement it in any meaningful way for several months. It’s what caused me to switch to 1P.
I need to use 1Password about 10x daily and this is a royal pain! I’ll take a break from 1Password until this is resolved.
