Quick Access - Feedback regarding favorites and suggestion order

@hazmat

Thank you for the suggestion that Quick Access show the one-time password and timer, I've passed it along to the team. 🙂

This was one of the things keeping me from updating from v7 to v8, and in revisiting v8 on a test Mac, I'm seeing no improvement over a year later. In this case it's my work Office 365 account. I went to office.com to log in, and the autofill list has a direct match for the URL four items down. The top item is a super old hotmail login at live.com. Nothing from that item is at the current site I'm at. How does this stuff work?

Thanks for the feedback, 1Password is aware of relationships between domains from the same provider. It will suggest logins for hotmail.com on office.com since they're all Microsoft accounts that can be used to login.

I have two suggestions that might help:

1. You can favourite the Microsoft login that you usually use, this will allow it to show up at the top of the list in Quick Access when on a Microsoft website.
2. You can create a collection that only includes your most often used logins:
3. Use collections to create custom groups of vaults
4. Switch between collections in Quick Access by using Command-1 to Command-9 on your keyboard

That being said, I appreciate the feedback and have shared it with the team.

Thank you for the feedback, I've passed it along internally. One of the other ways to access your favourites that I shared earlier might help: https://1password.community/discussion/comment/701884/#Comment_701884

If they don't then can you tell me a little more about how you are using favourites from the menu bar? I can pass along your use case to the team. 🙂

Thanks, Dave, but all of these are workarounds for objectively wrong behavior. If there's a direct match for a site you're at, that should absolutely be the first item. In 1Password 7, ⌘-\ simply fills in that login. I understand that 1Password 8 casts a wider net there, but it makes zero sense to have anything but the direct match for that site at the top of the list. I find it hard to believe that anything but that item would be the first choice 100% of the time.

Hi, Dave. So, my usage of this feature is pretty simple: There are 5 or 6 sites I visit several times daily. These are all starred as favorites. 1. I click on the 1PW-mini icon in the menu bar. 2. A dialogue box opens. All of my starred favorites show immediately…no searching…3. I click on the one I want. 4. Click on “Open and Fill,” and off I go to the website. Done. Simple as that. Sure would be nice to return that easy, user friendly approach.

One other thought: the link you supplied IS helpful, but (There's always a "yeah, but") I select 'Suggestions" in the browser icon because that will always show data for the webpage you're on. This is helpful if I need to copy a OTPW, or, provided other site specific data..for example, the password doesn't fill or I need information I've included in the fields below the login stuff. I Don't need this every time, and, yes, I can reselect suggestions, but it sure is handy to know it's right there under the browser icon with no other falderal required. Thanks again. Hard to please everyone, I know.

I appreciate the detailed reply. While I can't make any promises, I've let the team know that you'd also like to see favourites be better exposed when using Quick Access.

Thank you both for helping us make 1Password better. 💙

Thanks. If this is added, it will probably be a good time for me to update to 1Password 8. Right now, even though I can pull up favorites with "=favorites", the sorting there doesn't respect what the main app does, so my most-used on isn't at the top.

Thanks again for the feedback. 🙂
