Can’t search in 1P in iPad

I select All Categories and there doesn’t seem to be a search function on the screen. I tap around and Find in All Items appears. I enter passport. It produces one item a login for a site with the word passport. There’s the magnifying glass icon in iOS that produces the search box. There doesn’t seem to be any corresponding function in iPadOS.

Hello @TomWolsky! 👋

I'm sorry that you're not seeing search in 1Password on your iPad. You should see it in the sidebar


If you don't see it there then can you make sure that you're using the latest version of 1Password for iOS and then lock and unlock the 1Password app? 

Let me know if that doesn't help.

It is ridiculous that there isn't a search field visible when you first open the app.  99% of the time that it how people find the password they need.  It should be front and center.  Requiring the user to open the sidebar to find the search button is unintuitive and takes extra time.
