Yep, left the Mac for a while, came back to go to a website requiring a log in and yep, I had to open 1PW again first. So 1PW actually obstructs the sign in process rather than assists it. OK 1PW may be more secure than keychain for sensitive PW etc but for some bog standard website with no sensitive information I don't need the extra hurdle of opening 1PW before I can log in. 1PW for Safari app deleted!
I also came across the Universal Autofill. Went through the process of activating it. Eventually got it to work on one site, where it AGAIN asked me to open 1PW, but then it worked. So I thought maybe this is the answer. Wrong! Went to another site, it brought up the 1PW search box as there was more than one log in then when I found the one I wanted I clicked and it came up with the usual '1PW cannot confirm' or whatever that the phone app always brings up so I clicked the fill in and update option. Promptly, nothing happened. I mean seriously, can 1PW actually do ANYTHING? I even tried again and just used the fill once option. Nothing. All well and good trumpeting this flashy new functionality, just better if it actually WORKS!
So that's confirmed for me. 1PW in the bin tray and I will now look for something that isn't garbage and where the Mac app doesn't look like something designed for a ZX Spectrum.
