Disable frequently used
I don't want any usage-related metadata stored with my 1Password items, including recency and frequency. I see it as a security risk. Is there any way to disable this?

1 year agoHi jamesn thanks for your question!
There isn't a setting to disable that information from being stored with items, or surfaced in the apps - other than say, changing which sections appear on the 1Password for Android or iOS Home tab.
I'd be interested to hear more about the security risk you see here, and what sort of options you'd like to have available, so I can pass your comments along to the team. Thanks again!

The risk I see is that a bad actor can infer usage patterns and other information from how often or how recently something is accessed. I get that it's useful for most people, but disabling the collection of metadata like that should be an option IMO.
