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...

Hi,

I subscribe to the family plan, and it would be nicer (for me) if when I looked at my favorites I only saw mine, not my wife or kids.

These are for our shared items in common vaults.

I have several vaults:

Myself

Myself + wife

Myself + wife + kid1

Myself + wife + kid2

Myself + wife + kid1 + kid2

 

It's those shared accounts (mostly with the kids).   It's nice they can favorite their stuff, but I would rather not see it.    I realize I might be using this unconventionally, but I have been a 1PW user for 15+ years, and my kids were infants when I first started some of their accounts.

 

Can I make a feature request that would set the favorite for the vault on a per user basis ?

So Kid1 can favorite web site x in the vault "Myself + wife + kid1", but it's not one of my favorites.

Anyone else use 1PW this way ?

I realize I could split apart all their stuff in their personal Kid1 vault, but when they call home and need help with web site x or whatever, it's nice that I can log in from my local machine and help out.

    I use 1PW the same way as Scott. I was shocked to learn tonight that favorites are family based. The entire concept of favorite suggests personal. This seems more like a bug than a feature request.

      Thank you for the feedback. At the moment, whether an item is a favorite or not is metadata that is stored in the item itself. So if one person makes an item a favorite then the item becomes a favorite for everyone who has access to that item. 

      Changing how this works would require deeper architectural changes in how 1Password works, storing item metadata separately from the item itself, and it's something that the team would like to look into in the future but I don't have any firms plans or timelines to share at the moment.

        I just saw this explanation.  I made the same request at the beginning of the year and hope it reaches the top of the to do list

    Hi sknaffla 👋

    Thanks for explaining this so clearly! I've gone ahead and submitted this as a feature request for our Product team to take a look at.
