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

Hey 1P_Dave thank you for passing along the info. To answer your question a swipe down may work. I can’t visualize how it would work well because most of the pages in the 1Password app need to be scrolled to view all info. Where as with iOS that gesture is only on a screen where you don’t scroll down. So I just don’t see it working well, especially for re-searching/searching again. I could be wrong, I’d have to see a preview.

I’d still really like an answer on why this change was made. Without an explanation it seems like 1Password made a decision that negatively affects user experience in a silo. Which is odd because 1Password Markerts how much they are an experience/apps build around users.

Thanks for the support nycyclist
