Turn off passkey prompt

Hey McX,

I'm sorry for the disruption, I hope we can improve the behaviour for you in a future update.

Let us know if there is anything else we can help with in the meantime.

Oh, I just found a way that works.
1. Right-click on the browser extension icon for 1Password
2. Choose Settings
3. Choose Watchtower
4. Turn off "Offer to save and sign in with passkeys"

I was previously looking under Security vs Watchtower.

Adding another voice to this. Esc is an improvement, but it has already stolen the focus and it doesn't go back to the input field so I still have to navigate the mouse and click before I can use my hardware token. There should be a way to turn it off for a particular site and also all up as I will never use this feature on my work computer and I'm going to have to uninstall 1password if I can't turn it off.

Thank you for writing in with the request, I've passed it along to the team. We appreciate the feedback. 🙂

Thank you, it is certainly more helpful to be able to press the Escape key to dismiss the prompt.

I would also like the ability to add specific URLs to a deny-list so that I can turn off the passkey prompt only for specific domains. In general, I do want to have passkey prompts enabled -- but there are just specific domain names where I have to always use a hardware key and don't want the passkey prompt.

Great, but I need to do this several times a day, I’d still rather it was deny-listed on urls or domains.

Thank you for the feedback. We've recently introduced a change to the latest version of the extension to make using a security key easier:

If you close the prompt to save or use a passkey, the browser or system will offer to handle the passkey request.

When you encounter the need to use your security key, you'll be able to press the escape key on your keyboard to dismiss the prompt and then use your security key. I'd love to hear if this new functionality helps or if there's more we can do to make using the extension easier for this use case.

For those who would like to turn off passkeys for 1Password in the browser entirely you can follow these steps:

1. Right-click on the 1Password icon in the toolbar.
2. Click Settings.
3. Click Autofill.
4. Turn off "Offer to save and sign in with passkeys".

+1 Hardware MFA is mandated for many of the systems that I access on a day-to-day basis. These Passkey popups need to be disabled based on a regex match, or deny-listed for specific URLs or domains.

+1 - I'm hoping on the "please fix this" train in hopes the engineering teams prioritize this. Its VERY frustrating and making me debate on disabling the browser plugin all together.
