4 years ago1Password 8 for Mac Pre-release Feedback
Below is my feedback on 1P8 since I have started using it full time about a month ago. I have been compiling my thoughts on it in order to create one large feedback post. I installed an update today ...

4 years agoSafari: Thanks for the explanation. I got some new 🧠 cells on that one.
Accounts: I could be wrong but I would be willing to bet that many long time users may run into this when they make the jump to v8. I am not sure if I followed some wrong steps when updating to my family account. I was unaware for years that this had happened. You may want to think about some kind of process to handle this before the official launch. Just my 2¢.
*⌘\*: I will live. My muscles will develop new memories. At least I will always have my "⌘\ is my Password" t-shirt! I may have to wear it a bit less now though so that I make sure it's lasts. 😆
Duplicates: I definitely never saw duplicates in 1P7. I have removed v7 from my Mac. If I reinstall it, would that help?
Autofill Prompt: Yes. I am referring to autofilling Credit Card and Identity. I am all for protecting the common person from getting scammed. I would like to think that I would never autofill data that I don't explicitly want to. If a preference for this is possible, I would definitely welcome that.
Credit Card fill on iOS: What? 🤯🤦♂️ Ok. Totally missed the new extension... 🎉
Categories: I think that I am a much simpler 1Password user than you and everyone else at Agile. I use one account, Now I know that I have 2 but never knew that until yesterday. The new sidebar layout did help me realized that. So that is something. Probably 95% of my logins are stored in my Private vault. The rest are in a single Family Share vault. I don't use tags (maybe I should). The categories were pretty much the only thing that I used in the sidebar. I am not sure why having them there in a collapsable group would be a bad thing. If they are in the way, collapse it. Just like tags.
Autofill Email for new login: I definitely love the ability to autofill logins with a single click. Maybe I didn't convey my idea well enough. I have many logins stored inside 1Password that only have a password and no username/email. Therefore, when I go fill in the login, only the password gets filled. I would love to see 2 things... a way to possibly bulk fix that from within the app. Then 1P recognizes that when a login is saved without a username/email, that it could autofill my default email or prompt me to.
Sort Autofill by last used: This is probably the most vein request. I get that. Poor me might have to hit the down arrow once or twice before I hit enter! Most of the time when I have multiple logins for a site, I have a login that I use more often than others. Right now, I just make sure that I name my items so that the one I use most is always at the top. K.I.S.S.
Moving Items between Accounts: Move is not an option on any items inside of my frozen account. I did figure out that I can Duplicate an item into my active account though. It seems that any new login that has been created since v8 was done inside of my frozen account. Can you change the default account that new items get saved to?
I was trying to drag and drop items from my frozen account and that was not working. This would be be great. Going through the duplicate process is click intensive. With drag and drop, I would hopefully select multiple items and drag them into my active account. Once I make sure that the frozen account does not have anything extra in it, I will simply delete that account since I do not need it.
OK. This is completely unrelated....
I know that you love Alfred. One of its strengths is app launching. I wanted to share with you my new way of launching the apps that I use the most. I launched apps from Alfred for as long as I can remember. However, typing the names of the various apps 1000x per day got old. So I came up with a new process that is insane. It involves Keyboard Maestro and the Hyper key (via Karabiner Elements).
Karabiner allows you to remap your caps lock key to be a hyper key (cmd+option+ctrl+shift). I use the hyper key to quickly launch apps and various workflows. For example, I open Safari all of the time. Before I would use Alfred: cmd+space, then start typing safari, hit enter. Now I simply use hyper+S. This will open a new Safari window or activate any existing windows that may be open.
I cannot tell you how such a small change like this has boosted my productivity. It's amazing. You should try it. It does mean that you need to live without a caps lock key. However, your are Canadian. You don't yell anyways... 🇨🇦
