Add the Search Icon or add a shortcut.

I am incredibly confused on why the search icon would be removed. It is so awkward to click on the search bar. Why I have to search is because autofill fails which is becoming increasingly common or ...

    Hello folks, 

    Thanks again for all of the feedback. I thought that I would provide an update in this thread. Based on all of the feedback received from users in the community, social media, support, and other places the team has added the ability to immediately focus the search bar by pulling down on the Home, Items, and Watchtower screens when using 1Password for iOS. 

    You can also immediately launch and focus search by long-pressing on the 1Password icon on your home screen and then tapping Search. 

    The team will continue to iterate and test other approaches for search in the future and we do appreciate all of the feedback, even if specific suggestions/requests in this thread aren't implemented at this time. 

    -Dave

Hello birchmeier! 👋

Thank you for the feedback! Having a persistent search bar in 1Password for iOS, rather than a button in the navigation bar, has been one of our most frequently requested features. That being said, the team will continue to iterate on the search experience in the 1Password app based on customer feedback so that we can provide the search experience that works best.

Can you tell me a little more about what makes tapping on the search field more difficult? Are you using a larger phone and having trouble reaching the field with one hand? If you are then have you tried using the reachability feature that's built-in to iOS: Reach the top of the iPhone screen with one hand - Apple Support (CA)
