Browser's Password Manager

Should I disable my browsers' password management?
Should I disable the password auto fill feature in my web browser when running 1Password?
thanks

    Welcome to the forums, Ken! This is a great question.

    Though there is no technical reason you cannot have both 1Password and your browser's built-in password manager enabled, we recommend disabling browsers' built-in password management. This is both (1) to avoid confusion — "I swear I saved that already!" — and (2) for extra security — Google "browser password security."

    To disable password management in…

    • Safari: Preferences > AutoFill > UNCHECK User names and passwords
    • Firefox: Preferences > Security > UNCHECK Remember passwords for sites
    • Chrome: Preferences > Personal Stuff > SELECT Never save passwords

    I hope that helps. Please let me know. :-)

    Cheers!
