ChatGPT for iOS Adds Secure Sign-In With 1Password and 2FA Support — Here Is What Actually Shipped
On 25 August 2026 OpenAI gave ChatGPT Work’s browser the ability to complete tasks on websites that require a login, and on an iPhone that means a secure sign-in form you fill yourself — with a password manager such as 1Password and, where the site demands it, a two-factor code. This breakdown quotes exactly what shipped rather than the headline version: the release note in full, why authentication is limited to Plus and Pro, the phishing review model that inspects the destination before the form appears, how Apple’s Password AutoFill rather than OpenAI does the 1Password filling, and the difference between the site’s 2FA and the 2FA on your own OpenAI account. It also examines the part no headline carries — the signed-in session that persists on OpenAI’s servers after you close your phone — against the 2026 Verizon DBIR’s credential figures, and sets out the settings, policies and pilot steps a business should decide on this week.
