Update about Autofill improvements in Beta

Hey folks,
We’ve worked hard over the last three months to improve the reliability of Autofill in complex situations, such as when you have multiple items for the same website or want certain items to only be shown on a specific page.

If you’ve been using the beta, you might’ve run into the following improvements already:
* When editing an item, you can now access the “Autofill Behavior” menu, which lets you customize how an item will show on a specific page;
* When signing into websites, an opt-in improvement to the Autofill algorithm generates more reliable results in complex situations where subdomains, ports, and paths matter in order to prioritize certain items over others.

We appreciate your curiosity and have been looking on eagerly as you discovered and tested these new features. Your feedback has been very helpful, and we’re keeping track of what you shared so we can incorporate it into future versions of 1Password.

Over the last week, we’ve decided to temporarily retire the “Improved Autofill suggestions” feature. This is due to us having a very busy roadmap ahead of us and not being able to prioritize making this feature as good as it should be for the time being. However, please rest assured that we will return to it later this year and ensure it addresses all your feedback.

What this means for you
Within upcoming betas, you’ll keep seeing the “Autofill Behavior” menu. That’s not going away, and it will keep working as expected. It is slated to enter the production channel within a month or two once we’re comfortable with its performance.

The toggles for Improved Autofill Suggestions will gradually disappear from the Browser Extension and 1Password 8 betas. The behavior will revert to the original version of Autofill regardless of whether you’ve switched to the new version.

As mentioned above, we’re not abandoning this feature permanently; we’re just ensuring we’ll have enough time when we get back to working on it to truly make it shine.

Thank you for your understanding! We’re always open to your feedback and questions, so please let us know if there’s anything we can help with.

Cheers,
Gabriele
