Password Generator is missing in Quick Access of 1Password 8

Hi @mriner,

The password generator can be found in the ≡ menu:

That said, I appreciate the feedback and have added proxy votes on behalf of yourself and @rllewis for this. Thanks!

I do not see that screen or the three lines (2) anywhere! Neither when I open Quick Access, nor when I open the 1password app. How do I get to it. But really, you should offer the password generator in the menu bar drop down. It is so useful.

How do I return to 1Password 7? Version 8 is too confusing and non-intuitive.

This is what I see, which looks nothing like your screenshot:

Hi, @andrew_l_1P

We are asking for restoration of the function to generate passwords without being forced to start up Safari.
Just to be sure.

Hi @rllewis and @ojix2,

Apologies for the confusion, that screenshot was meant to clarify where in the 1Password browser extension the password generator could be found, as mentioned earlier in this thread.

We've recorded your feedback about having it available elsewhere and will continue to advocate for this. I appreciate you letting us know it's important to you. 🙂

Even apple recommends a generated password in any password field that is presented. Why can’t 1password do that?

If i have to click 3x to get to a password generator im faster to open any random password generator website in new tab and let them generate one. (not ideal way to do this at all.. just showing the worse issue with generating passwords in v8)

I noticed you had questions about how 1Password does user research. If you're interested in participating in future research initiatives, we now have a guide available in this forum on doing so:

I hope that helps!

Awesome! Thanks Ben -- I signed up. I also saw you had a job opening for a User Experience Researcher and I was tempted to apply, but waited too long! :)

+1 for the Password Generator to be restored to the Quick Access panel AND the 1Password 8 app itself!
