A separate Favorite list for each family member
I noticed that in the past others have asked for the ability to create a separate favorites list for each family. Is there any information about 1Password's current view on this request or estimate...
Hello astandre! 👋
Thank you for reaching out! Changing favourites to be per-user rather than per-item is a request that is in our product team's backlog but there are prerequisites that have to be developed first before the team can consider making the change. Each item is responsible for declaring whether it is a favourite or not, this system was developed in a time when sharing items in 1Password wasn't as common as it is now. Before favourites can be made per-user this per-item metadata has to be moved out of the item and into a new user-specific layer in the database. Creating this user-specific layer requires some architecture work and, for the moment, this work is yet to be done.
That being said, I've added your comment to the open feature request for this change. Hopefully this is something that can be done in the future.

Since it feels like all discussions on this topic have been closed in the past 6 years (without any plausible, comprehensible explanation), I'm opening a new one.
Problem:
Favourites are organisation-related and not user-related. This makes absolutely no sense, as HR or Marketing, for example, have completely different favourites than, for example, Technicians or the SOC.
Solution:
Implement favourites at user level instead of organisation level
or let me put it another way: .... you don't have to eat pizza hawaii just because it's your flatmate's favourite pizza, do you?

Still no news about such a "basic" point?

Thanks for following up! I’ve merged your thread with another discussing the same feature request.
While it may seem simple on the surface, implementing this would require changes to how item metadata is structured and stored, a larger undertaking that hasn’t been prioritized yet. You can find more details in this reply.

Hi Dave,
Thanks for your Reply. But the same issue also affects companies where employees should be able to have their own favourites.....so seems to be a architecture problem in general
No News regarding that?

Sorry, no, not at this time.
So the way to regularly write something pointless is to keep the topic open?

Hello 1psidctm! 👋
Thanks for following up! I see that my colleague previously filed a feature request on your behalf with the team, that request is still open and I don't have any updates to share at the moment. I've made a note internally that this is still something that you'd like to see changed in how 1Password's favourites work.

Old discussions are closed automatically by the system once there hasn't been any new activity for some time. This is to keep the forum clean and focused on the current state/version of 1Password. The feature request that was filed on your behalf internally remains open even if the discussion thread closes. You're always welcome to open a new thread (like this) if you'd like an update or to continue the conversation from an old thread that was closed. 🙂
