Chinese names and search issues
Starting from version 8.0, when searching in Chinese, only the beginning of Chinese can be searched, and intermediate keywords cannot be searched.
For example, if I save a login password with the name "你好世界", the password can only be found by searching for "你好", but the password cannot be found by searching for "世界".
If the saved name is in English, such as "hello word", it can be searched whether you search for "hello" or search for "word".
If the password name saved in Chinese is used, only the first character of the Chinese name can be searched, and any keyword cannot be searched.

Hi @eanznj, thank you for your thoughtful feedback here. My understanding is that this has to do with how 1Password 8 handles substring search functionality, and it's something we're continuing to look at going forward. Thank you for letting us know about your experience with this - and we'll make sure to post any future updates on how search works in the forums here.
