Sonoma new password source selection menu
It seems that macOS Sonoma brings a new feature that kind of looks like it will allow autofilling of password and passkeys from a source different that it's own iCloud Keychain.
At least from the picture above I can assume that the whole reason for making an on/off toggle selection for iCloud Keychains is that maybe some other source can be added there.
My question is, is 1Password looking into this? Can it be possible for 1Password to integrate with this and be set as the default source for password autofill?

Thank you for those details. Is there any specific about the design language that you're finding off? I find that 1Password feels at home in whatever browser I use whether it's Safari, Chrome or Firefox. The team has built a custom design language called Knox so that you get a consistent experience on all of your devices and browsers.
The safari now has two buttons (the 1Password with an offset), and both are competing as I used keychain before and that still has most of my passwords.
I recommend that you don't use two password managers at the same time but choose one or the other. You can migrate all of your items to 1Password by using this guide: Move your iCloud Passwords from Safari to 1Password
There are also some pretty amazing features in the 1Password browser extension that wouldn't be supported by macOS AutoFill:
- Use 1Password to sign in to sites with supported providers
- Use 1Password to create and manage Masked Emails in Fastmail
- Filling and saving of addresses and identities in 1Password
- Filling and saving of credit cards in 1Password
- Convenient item search right from your browser's toolbar
- Watchtower in the browser
That being said, I've passed your request along to the team. 🙂

until know only tested the safari extension, as I'm not the biggest fan of giving everything accessibility access to my Mac (not even my password manager). The safari now has two buttons (the 1Password with an offset), and both are competing as I used keychain before and that still has most of my passwords.
The 1Password in safari looks like I'm running chrome, which just has a different design language.

Thank you for the feedback, can you tell me a little more about what feels "alien" about Universal Autofill? Are you filling into websites open in your browser or other Mac apps?
Have you already installed 1Password in the browser: Get to know 1Password in your browser

Sadly overlooked this post while posting a new post. As I stated there the Universal Autofill feels rather alien to macOS. So this feature would be really nice to have.

Thanks again for the feedback. 🙂

Thank you!
I'd love to file a feature request.
It's pretty simple, I would like to have the option to choose 1Password as an option in macOS Sonoma's new password options menu that is shown in Settings -> Passwords -> Password Options:
This page looks very similar to the implementation in iOS/iPadOS where 1Password can already be selected as an option:
So I think this implementation is pretty similar.

Thanks for the reply. Right now, we're focused on Universal Autofill and 1Password in the browser for filling into browsers and other apps on the Mac.
That being said, I'm happy to file a feature request on your behalf. Can you tell me a little more about why you'd prefer to use macOS AutoFill over the currently available options?
