1pwd ignores default vault setting

I have set a default vault in the browser extension but when I create a new login item in the macOS 1pwd app it ignores this setting and saves it to the Personal vault instead.
I thought this had worked a few days ago but when I create new items today it always picks the Personal vault.


1Password Version: 8.9.4
Extension Version: 2.3.7
OS Version: 12.5.1
Browser:_ Safari

    this doesn't make sense - please fix this quickly

    1pwd team, please, ask yourself, why would you need a default vault setting in the browser but not in the Mac (or iOS) app?
    you obviously see the benefit of a default vault - after all this has been working for years before version 8 - so why would you implemented this in version 8 in such a haphazard way?

    this shouldn't be a feature request but a bug fix, as an previously working feature now only works partially; please bring this back for all devices!

    That setting applies only to the browser and autosave prompts. It does not apple to the Mac app. We have a feature request for a default vault within the Mac app. I'll let the team know this is something you'd like to see.

    The Personal vault is the intended target in the Mac app unless you change the item location during creation.
