Hello bsb! 👋

Thank you for the feedback and for using 1Password for so many years. Since you've brought up many different topics, I've split your comment into a new thread so that we don't derail the other one which is focused on just one issue. 🙂

I'm sorry that you're running into issues when using 1Password 8. The team would certainly be interested in working with you to help resolve those issues. I'll respond directly to the issues that you raised below:

The search is now rubbish

Can you tell me a little more about where search is failing for you? If you haven't seen it already, here's a guide on 1Password 8's new search capabilities: Search in the 1Password app to find what you need

I can't sort properly

You can sort items by clicking on the Sort button at the top of an item list. This will give you the option to sort by:

  • Title
  • Date Created
  • Date Modified
  • Frequently Used
  • Recently Used

As well as:

  • Newest First
  • Oldest First

Can you tell me more about what kind of sort features you're looking for or what issues you're running into?

dates are formatted wrong

We released better support for date and time localization with version 8.9.12 of 1Password for Mac but the team is aware that there are still issues that need to be resolved further. We have an internal work item open to do this and I've added your comments there.

I can't use the toolbar widget for anything any more and have to use yet another keyboard shortcut (so why even have a toolbar icon?!)

Are you referring to the menu bar icon? If you are then you can change what happens when you click on the menu bar icon by following these steps:

  1. Open and unlock 1Password for Mac.
  2. Click on 1Password next to the  in the menu bar.
  3. Click on Settings.
  4. Change "Click the icon to:" to the desired option.

For example, I set the option to "Show Quick Access" so that Quick Access opens when I click the icon: Get to know Quick Access

the password generator is now so hidden that I have to use 3 clicks to get to the point where I can customise the password recipe

The new workflow is designed to help you generate a password and save it all in one shot. Are you trying to generate a password without also saving it in 1Password? Can you tell me more about how you would use a more "standalone" password generator option? I would be happy to pass along your request and specific feedback about your use case to the team.

I look forward to hearing from you.

-Dave
