Similar situation here. I use 1Password every day, but I only trust it to autofill simple login forms. Where something more complex is happening, I tend to copy information over field by field.

This was trained into me over the years as I saw 1Password do too many things that were wrong or even sometimes scary. The nominal benefit you get sometimes when it works properly isn't worth it.

And yes, web providers should give their web forms better names and better semantic information (e.g. `<input type="email">`), but even in 2021 it's just not always the case.

Well, there's no semantic input for "year" or "currency", so there's nothing the form designer could do to stop 1Password from picking the wrong field. This does kinda get to the root of the issue, which is that 1Password has to do a lot of "cognitive" analysis of the page to find the forms it wants which is simultaneously why it does better than most autofillers, and has worse false positives than most autofillers.

I am also a happy 1Password user, and I'll happily let it prefill a complex form for me, but I've caught enough of its mistakes in the past that I will always manually double check before submitting. I could also see myself making a similar mistake as this user on this form though (since it's so simple I might not manually double check).

This is how you mark up the expiry year in a credit card form:

    <input autocomplete="cc-exp-year">

Mock me if you wish, but I tend to use 1Password for what it does best but use Apple’s Autofill for credit cards. It misses stuff sometimes but -fingers crossed - no issues with mis population into amount fields. I also use ApplePay or PayPal wherever possible to avoid data entry and reduce friction.
