2 years agoExperiment #4 – New interface in 1Password.com’s vault view
Hi Folks!
Today we’re bringing you a beta version of a major update to the vault item view interface on 1Password.com. Our goal is to align the design with the main desktop application as well as improve our ability to introduce new features consistently across all of our platforms.
Unlike previous experimental features in labs, you are not required to manually enable this experiment, and it will not appear under the “Labs” tab in the 1Password apps. As this is an updated vault item view of our web interface, you can access it directly via this link.
At this time, the new interface provides a read-only version, which means it is limited in functionality compared to the current interface. We wanted to start testing as early as possible to identify any potential issues well in advance of a full rollout. Full functionality that aligns with the current vault item view interface will be gradually introduced over the next couple of months as we continue testing and developing.
The primary questions I'm trying to answer are:
1. Do you prefer this new interface over the old one?
2. Do you see value in us rolling out this new interface of the vault item view to all 1Password users?
3. Are you experiencing any performance issues?
4. How often do you use the vault item view in 1Password.com?
We are eager to hear what you think about this new web interface. Please share your feedback and thoughts below in the thread!

- Began supporting localization for the 12 languages already supported in the rest of the web app and other apps. There are some tasks remaining there.
- Maintain the last item list sort order throughout the app and across page reload.

I also encounter no autocomplete when editing an item in the new beta web interface.

1P_Rob thanks for the update! This all makes sense

for the app version will I have to log in every time I close my browser on desktop computer ? Perhaps have this as an option ? Very annoying to have to do that with the existing interface even though I set auto lock to off.
caps620 If you close your browser, your session on 1password.com will end. This is because 1Password is a different kind of web app than most — it relies on encryption keys that we don't have so that you access your data securely. These keys are available only to you, and there is no safe place for us to store them in your browser so that you can stay signed in. Personally, I'm hopeful that passkeys will make this easier to handle in the future.
Also with the existing app interface when opened it just shows a small window. Will the new version app open to a web page ?
It sounds like you might be talking about our desktop app or browser extension. The new version we're talking about here is a web page just like the old version at https://my.1password.com/vaults/all. We're not replacing the desktop app or browser extension.

Hi, folks!
It's been a bit since my last update. You may have noticed we quietly rolled out an update last Thursday that includes… 🥁 item history! It also included the ability to archive items and restore archived items.
Unfortunately, we also noticed a little too late that a couple other things broke, including displaying notes when you're not editing an item. We have a fix ready for that going out tomorrow morning. Sorry about that. 🙏 cc: amycroft1 MerryBit AndyRM13
Next up, we're working on item sharing and Watchtower. Don't worry, we won't be shipping without them. 😇 cc: GrowthBuster MrNice
Thanks to everyone for your recent feedback! Here are some specific comments I wanted to address:
Both the old and new web UI do not support the SSH private key "export" or copy like in the (windows) desktop application.
Hey, ytz. Yes, this is a known issue for now. Our focus is currently on refreshing the UI without breaking anything. Since this is already "broken" we may not get to it until after the first version of the new UI is shipped, but it's something we plan to address.
I am not able to Archive via drag and I can't find any button.
jcoronel25 we recently added archive support. Just click the three dots in the top right corner of an item to find the Archive option.
I appreciate the fact that if I enter a new item in 'all items' view it defaults to placing it in the 'private' vault. I'm not sure how I feel about that behavior when I'm in another vault.
ThePyro This is a bug I just noticed today, and I opened an issue. If you've selected a specific vault, we should be saving new items to that vault by default.
Thanks for all the other thoughts you shared, too!
I don't see the "show web form details" or "show previously used passwords", etc. and I would greatly miss these if they are dropped from the new interface.
Thanks for this, rpass! The "Show Previously Used Passwords" button is now an action on the password field called "View password history". But looking into this made me realize our new version isn't saving to that list correctly right now, so I've opened an issue for that.
I'm still looking into "Show Web Form Details". I see that's not shown in our desktop apps either, so I'll need to get more information there.
As mentioned above, we just released item history last week, so you should be able to see previous versions of entire items now.
Adding New Login password or adding anykind New Password, the capable of putting your on Label will be nice like you can do on Old version.
MrNice you can still change the label for a field or section in the new version. The label is just above the field rather than to the left, which has the nice benefit of making it easier to show more text.
Clicking the "Tags" collapse/expand icon does not do anything. The "Categories" icon works as expected.
Michael_Shingledecker that should only happen when you've selected one of the tags so that we can keep showing you where you are. The same is true for categories. When you select something else that row will disappear.
PLEASE DO NOT USE DARK MODE!!
This is a problem for users like me who are colour-blind; I can't see anything when you enable a black background. It may be what developers want but doesn't follow accessibility guidelines
easymatics I need your help here. Dark mode is only enabled when your system (or browser, perhaps) is set to dark mode. Is there a reason you want to have your system set to dark mode but you don't want your web apps to be displayed in dark mode?
Either way, our dark mode color scheme does follow accessibility guidelines, and I'm not sure how color-blindness factors in. If you're not trolling me, I'd love to learn more. ❤️
In previous versions, I have saved log in details and was able to add attachments, eg a drivers licence or passport for example. The only way I can see to do that here is by creating a 'document'. Am I missing something?
stardust8 when you're editing an item, click "+ add more" and you should see "Attach a File" at the bottom of the menu.
Is it possible to hide the category selection in the sidebar?
Former Member you're the first one to ask. 😅 Everyone else asked for it to be added back. It will eventually be configurable like the desktop app, but for now, it will behave the same as the original web view. It can be collapsed, but not removed. In both versions, if you collapse the categories, they will stay collapsed across page refresh.
More sort options would be great, not just name/date/etc... For instance, sorting by category would be useful for me.
ceastwood you can already filter by category using the sidebar or the menu at the top of the list. Can you help me understand how sorting by category would help your workflow? And are there any other sort options you're looking for?
I think something that I'd like to log right now, is that sometimes you put the website and the favicon will show on the browser, but it doesn't pull through this image to the item's icon preview.
Former Member yes, we don't pull directly from websites because there are a lot of performance and privacy issues there. We used to have a crawler that would regularly fetch new icons, but lately we're just manually maintaining a repository of icons for popular sites. If you have specific requests for updates, I can pass those on.
one more thing that I'd like to get some clarity on, is why you can no longer (website or app wise), paste an image from the clipboard?
I don't think I've ever tried that. It probably was something built into a former version of the app that got lost in a rewrite and we just haven't heard much about it. That's both a pro and a con of rewrites. You can shed stuff people aren't using, but if you're in a small group of people that use a specific thing, it can easily disappear.
I have manually uploaded over 300 icons for each of my entries and most of them are not showing. Presumably only the ones that the app has applied from the website.
PS Since posting the previous comment, I have spent more time on the beta and do like the changes. But losing the icons means doing it again.ETHELDOG no worries, you won't need to add them again. They're still there, we just haven't added support for showing or editing them in the new version yet. It's on our punch list.

once I edit and save one of those items, the search context shifts to whatever vault that item was in and I no longer see all those similar items on the left
wselig well spotted, thanks! That's a bug, and I've opened an ticket for us to fix it.
Thanks again, everyone! Keep the feedback coming. It's super helpful.

Hi, like the new interface, but would love to be able to see more if not all properties on the object page without having to go into edit mode. I keep a lot of additional info in a field called "Notes" and in the old interface it is displayed when selecting an object, in the new interface I have to first activate edit mode to see my notes.

The UI looks really good, but the Sign out, Manage Account and Set up another Device could be added to the bottom of the page as small icons or just buttons, because currently they are just added in the dropdown of vaults.
To answer your questions -
1. Do you prefer this new interface over the old one? - Yes i prefer the new version, it looks clean and bold
2. Do you see value in us rolling out this new interface of the vault item view to all 1Password users? - Yes, the old one looked a bit retro, and spread out
3. Are you experiencing any performance issues? - i just started using it, so nothing so far.
4. How often do you use the vault item view in 1Password.com? - Not very often. - Hops55New Contributor
I'd love to see a clickable side menu when alphabetized so that I can zip down to the lower letters instead of scrolling what seems like forever. Or a pop-up that shows the initial letter, like Windows Start.

Custom item images are not showing in the web app. I create this image with screenshots to make easier. This is only one example. I have a lot of other items without custom image on web app
- MerryBitDedicated Contributor
Right now, all my secure notes show up empty until I edit them. Anyone else see this?
