Easily open Safari tabs in 1Password for iOS using custom URL schemes

I’m not sure if it’s new to the application, but it’s new to me: a custom URL scheme in 1Password for iOS 4.1 that allows you to send any web page in Safari directly to the excellent browser within 1Password. So smart.

It’s easy: say you’re on a page in Safari that requires a login—and of course you’re using 1Password (or something like it) to assign unique and strong passwords for every site you belong to.

Just touch up in the URL bar, and make your way to the very front of the URL (where it starts http:// or https://). Simply add op to the beginning. Press Go. You may have to confirm that you want to switch to 1Password. Press Open.

Unlock 1Password when it opens, and you’ll be presented with the page in its built-in browser. Press the login key and select your desired credentials.
