1Password v8 is a Mistake

roustem there is NO way you've used 1PW8 since last year if it's in this current stage as EA with all the issues—otherwise, I'm assuming you didn't have use for a password manager for that long. This is not remotely close to being a daily driver. And if you're support (I'm making an assumption here, so please correct me if wrong) then you should absolutely not run an internal dev version. And even if so—then you're telling a lot of people didn't catch all these basic mistakes? Sorry, but having a real hard time believing that statement.

roustem The big feature that's missing, is having the categories in the sidebar, the drop down menu for them is absolutely atrocious. How this made it past initial design I don't know.

krusnof You might be right.

I don't have 1Password 7 installed anywhere. I was living on 1Password 8 since last year and I am probably used to not having the features that you are missing. I hope you will let us know, just like you did in another thread. I truly appreciate it.

roustem I think you're focusing on such a small facet of a bigger picture of what's not working and what people are not satisfied with. Again, read the case study on Arq 5 > 6 (disaster Electron) > 7.

roustem Genuine question, how many users do you think regularly need to enter dates into their password manager? It just seems that you're patching all these issues that weren't really problems for 99.9% of the user base?

gussic Sorry, I wasn't clear about item editing. The speed should be fine everywhere but the fact that I can barely enter a date in 1Password 7 was driving me crazy. And there are so many other small problems that completely break the experience for me in 1P7.

roustem I've just tried this - there is literally no difference in the speed between editing items. Functionality wise, given menus don't display outside of the 1P8 window, and get cut off, I'd actually venture as far as saying its a step backwards from 1P7, not forwards.

@blankspace Understood. But I am still sad that after so many years you abandoned us without giving the new app a chance. It certainly needs more work as krusnof mentioned but I truly believe that it is the best version of 1Password we shipped so far (have you tried to at least edit an item in 1Password 8 and see how much better it is compared to version 7?)

Anyway, I hope you will find what you are looking for. We still love you 🙏

You know I am actually impressed you’re commenting after the backlash that’s been said here. The fact remains I’ve canceled my subscription and won’t be renewing. Im not getting stuck with yet another electron app. It’s bad enough I have to deal with all the others. You couldn’t even make the effort to use WebKit which shares almost identical front end code with electron without the insane bloat. Honestly it’s a slap in the face to us paying customers after all these years.

Damn, krusnof. Harsh but true. ❤️
