Disable username 'suggestions' when creating a new entry

Yes, please disable username list when creating a new entry

I am following up on the original request from four years ago regarding the "username" field behavior when creating a new entry. I want to add my voice to this feedback.

This specific behavior is extremely disruptive and, for me, turns what should be a seamless experience into a point of frustration.

The Problem with "Current Suggestions":

• The core issue is that the app suggests previously used usernames from my vault when creating a new login entry. In modern security practice, the standard is to use a unique username for every single service, or at least to let the password manager generate one (like an email alias).
• Therefore, suggesting an already used username for a new account is not just unhelpful, it actively promotes poor security habits.

Proposed Solution

• This behavior should be an opt-in feature
• ... or, ideally, removed entirely from the new entry creation flow

1Password is an outstanding product, but this "feature" significantly hinders the creation of new items. I strongly urge the team to prioritize addressing this user experience issue.

Vote tallied, @andmade. Thank you!

Yes please! There's crap in there I don't even know where you got it from. Stuff like this should be filled with user-added items only, not an long list of whatever random stuff 1P has grabbed over years and not editable in the slightest.

@brendanc : Thanks so much! I've added a proxy vote on your behalf.

@bpclay : you're most welcome! 😊

Thanks Alvin_L_1P

+1 from me as well

Hey @bpclay :

It's currently not possible to disable the list of usernames shown when creating a new item in the 1Password 8 app. With that being said, we currently have an open feature request for the ability to disable this feature, and I've added a proxy vote on your behalf.

Let me know if you have any questions in the meantime.

Alvin
