Gone are the days where you needed an external password manager to store all the passwords you use for your various online accounts. For a couple of years now, Google Chrome has had a perfectly good password management feature, including the options to generate, autofill and store your passwords. Right-click 1Password's icon in Chrome's toolbar Settings General Ensure the 'make 1Password the default password manager' option is on copy and paste this text to the browser's address. Chrome will only autofill a password if the input type='password' - it would otherwise risk exposing the user's password in plain text. So, use type='text' on the input field, and then change the type attribute to 'password' when the user focuses on the input. Tap the username or password field, then tap “Autofill with 1Password”. Tap “Create a new login”, then enter your username. Tap next to the password field and adjust the settings for your new password. Tap Next when you’re finished, then tap Save and finish signing up for your account.
