Question

Favorites in 1Password 8 now showing me everybody's

I have only a few favorites in 1Password and this was an excellent way to find "My Favorites". All of a sudden, I am now seeing favorites which other people who have shared vaults are marking as their favorites. The odd thing is, I can turn them off if I want, but then that removes it from their favorite list.

Is there a way to have our own favorites only show up in favorites. We have a large team of people sharing vaults from different cities. I am not enjoying searching through everything to find mine. I may as well not use favorites anymore.

Hello @motleybard,

I'm not privy to all feedback provided to our Product team about specific feature requests. I've sent your details along so the team is aware of your desire to see improvements here with Favourites being per-user. Thanks!

Came here to ask why my co-workers' favorite items are showing in my favorites.

I've used favorites for a long time, but, apparently my Team member co-workers have discovered this feature.

I figured it was bugged or something as "random" items began showing in my favorites and I promptly removed them.

I only realized later this was a "global"/item feature and me removing favorites are actually removing them for those that did the favoriting on my Team.

Please add my +1 to allow for "Personal Favorites". As it is, it's confusing for Teams/Families with people adding/removing things mistakenly when seeing "random" items show up in the list.

1PW should at least show a clear warning about favorites being shared. From a security perspective the current solution is less than ideal. My understanding/expectation is that a favorite is initially private and only shared if I explicitly set it to shared.

Hi @viswiz, thanks for your input! I can definitely understand how a message in the app about favourites being global would be helpful here. I've passed this feedback along to our product team 😄

+1 to make favorites unique to user and not item. For a business this feature is otherwise useless.

+1 for this, shared favorites makes as little sense as warm coca cola
