I'm using the new Arc Browser from the Browser Company (https://thebrowser.company/), which runs on Chromium. It works perfectly but as of now it doesn't seem to by syncing with the desktop app, so I...

steph_giles - I recently had a chance to use the beta browser extension with Arc again and was really impressed with the user experience when my 1Password vault is locked. In short, whenever I need to enter credentials, I can see the 1Password icon in the credential field and when I click on it, I'm immediately given the opportunity to unlock my vault (in this case, using the fingerprint sensor on my Mac). I authenticate and then select the appropriate credential from the menu and I'm done!
The experience with the shipping version of the 1Password browser extension is less seamless. I navigate to a page where I need to enter credentials and I can see the 1Password icon in the field with a message that says I need to find the 1Password extension in my toolbar and unlock my vault. Once I find the extension (three dots menu upper right) and select the 1Password extension, I get a new 1Password window where I need to select the password field and enter my master password (also of note: no option to auth with Apple Watch like I can with the beta). Once that process is done, I select the original window where I was attempting to authenticate, click in the auth field and can now select the appropriate credential from the menu. In short - it's a much more tedious process.
Is my experience with the shipping version of the 1Password extension the expected behavior? If not, what am I doing wrong?
I'd be happy to make a video of my experience or provide any other information as necessary.
