## Source excerpt

Today we're releasing universal sign-in, a new experience from 1Password that provides a seamless and secure way to sign into any site with your preferred method. It's currently available to all customers in the latest version of the 1Password browser extension. A single prompt for every sign-in Signing in doesn't happen one way anymore. A single site might support passwords, passkeys, or third-party providers like Google. Over the last several years, 1Password has evolved to support all major authentication methods used today (passwords, passkeys, 2FA, social logins, OIDC and SAML). But the authentication experience varied because of differences with the underlying technologies. Not having a consistent way to use every authentication type 1Password offered meant needing to remember which third-party provider account you used, manually submitting pages, or needing to find and click sign-in fields. No password manager on the market had a single, consistent way to let you sign in, until now. Universal sign-in means that when you land on a login page, 1Password displays a single prompt to sign in using the authentication method you've chosen for that website. No need to remember how you've logged into the website in the past; passwords, passkeys, one-time codes, social logins, and company-managed apps will all appear in the same, intuitive prompt. Simply pick which account you'd like to sign in with, and 1Password handles the rest. How it works Visit a login page, or launch a saved login in 1Password with an available sign-in URL. The universal sign-in prompt appears at the top of the login page using our new advanced field analysis. It'll appear when you need it, and disappear when you don't. Every account and available authentication method is listed and selectable within the universal sign-in prompt. Choose the login you'd like to use. Over time, 1Password also learns which accounts and methods you prefer using for that site. 1Password then automatically fills your
