Feature Request: Advanced search

Without addressing any other feature dance, let me reinforce the NEED for advanced search. Anyone who has used 1Password for any substantial length of time will find the absolute need to be able to search on specific fields, and while doing that be able to limit the search to the literal string or to have wildcards or fuzzy matching. For perspective, my earliest retained entry is from 2007. It does not matter if it is a login, a license, or a note.

Please, please either tell us how to do this, or give us a delivery date.

Can anyone tell me whether BitWarden supports this?

    Hello CrankyOp! 👋

    Thank you for the feedback! I've split your post into a new thread since it wasn't directly related to the other thread that you posted in. 

    Anyone who has used 1Password for any substantial length of time will find the absolute need to be able to search on specific fields, and while doing that be able to limit the search to the literal string or to have wildcards or fuzzy matching. 

    I can certainly pass along your feedback to the team. Are you able to provide a few examples of where these specific search features (exact string match and fuzzy search) would be useful for you? The more detail that I can add to the feature request that I file on your behalf, the better our team will be able to prioritize the request. 

    I look forward to hearing from you.

    -Dave

      Current example: my spouse has had a yahoo email account for years, and recently has had too much of their continued <Corey Doctorow's apt label redacted> of the platform. The desire is to do a search for all the places where that email is used as a login, and is not elsewhere in the entry. Again, having both used 1Password for a while and having a Family plan with some sharing, we tend to have history and context details in the Notes.

      A separate search would be for software licenses where there is a need to cohere or update the license address. 

      Thanks,
