Hi @davidpetraz,

Thanks for trying those troubleshooting steps, sorry to hear autofill in Safari still isn't behaving as expected. Since you're seeing an in-line option, could you confirm that the appropriate vaults are selected in the Safari browser extension? Here are the steps:

  1. Right-click the 1Password icon in Safari's toolbar
  2. Select "Settings"
  3. In the left side menu of the tab that appears, select "Accounts & Vaults"
  4. Ensure that all the vaults you'd like to see autofill suggestions from are checked

If you're seeing sporadic results across different websites, I'd also recommend creating a test item for https://fill.dev/ to see if you see better results there. It may be the case that certain websites haven't labelled their fields in a way 1Password can read, or their related 1Password items are missing the website fields to connect them.

A fresh install is also an option, I'll share some links if you want to try that route:

Let me know how things go and we can take it from there. 🙂
