I have several logins that somehow have been duplicated in 1Password 8. This may have happened in different times when I've attempted to migrate my 1Password 7 data to my 1Password.com account.

In any case, I have a load of duplicates in 1Password 8 and it would be very helpful if there were an efficient tool or feature to help me merge/dedupe these entries (and ideally test them to make sure that I'm preserving the correct credentials).

Any thoughts/ideas for how to handle this situation?


1Password Version: 1Password for Mac 8.5.0 80500017, on BETA channel
Extension Version: 2.1.4
OS Version: macOS 12.0.1 (21A559)

Has this still not been fixed yet? Wasn't there any beta testing to discover the duplicate issue before it happened to us paying customers?

Hi @ctphoto, I don't have any updates to supply at the moment but can tell you that I'm happy to pass on your feedback - and have now done so. Thanks for letting us know this is a priority for you. 🙏

@1Password team, please aggressively move this up your queue... In today's day and age, this is a fairly "simple" ask / obvious, table-stakes type of function that really puts a significant damper on your paid user experience. I did a fair amount of research before deciding to move forward with 1Pw, and I am actually shocked that this isn't showing up as a significant downside in your online reviews and by media outlets... It's only a matter of time, and it's going to continue to significantly negatively affect ux until it's fixed. The fact that this has been deprioritized for 18 months is... disappointing, to say the least.

@1Password, you should put this in the Watchtower. You cannot have two login with the same username.

As a new user, we need to import several password database into 1Password and we need a tool to check if there is duplicate.

Why does this not address this issue yet?

Hi folks, I'm sorry we don't any any further news to share at this time regarding this feature, but I've added these new votes and comments for the teams review. Thanks for the feedback.

I hope there is some compensation for those of us who were penalized for upgrading to version 8? Time is money as they say and I have spent plenty of it going through all my duplicate and archived passwords that were "merged" into version 8. I am literally afraid to ever go to version 8 now.

I'm running into this issue as well. On a Mac, running 8. Also running 8 on Windows.
