9 months agoHi iwaddo - I hope you don't mind me jumping in to help while Dave is away. Apologies for any confusion, there are two ways to autofill your saved login items from 1Password on an iOS device:
1Password for Safari is a browser extension and offers a similar experience to that of using the 1Password browser extensions on a desktop or laptop device. You can fill and save using 1Password for Safari by tapping the suggestions in the inline menu, directly below fillable fields:
Safari is the only browser on iOS that supports extensions, so 1Password for Safari will only be available there.
The other method is through the 1Password integration with iOS's built in Password AutoFill feature. This allows you to autofill login items in any app or browser where iOS is able to detect a fillable sign-in form. You can use the 1Password integration with iOS Password AutoFill by tapping the suggested logins or the "🔑 Passwords" button that appear directly above your keyboard or at the bottom of the screen.
You can choose to rely on the 1Password integration with iOS Password AutoFill to autofill your logins in Safari, but 1Password for Safari will offer more functionality there, as 1Password is fully in control of the processes of filling and saving.
