how to prevent identity cards from being suggested by autofill

Hi gang, I've been using Identities for years with 1Password, and have archived a bunch of identities that are only there for historical reference - every five years I have to dig up addresses I live...

Hello MikeTheCanuck! 👋

Thanks for the question! Archiving the item would be the best option since it allows you to keep the item saved in case you need it but it won't be suggested when filling forms in the browser.

The next best option would likely be to create a new vault, move those items into that vault, and then exclude that vault from 1Password in the browser:

  1. Open Safari and open any webpage.
  2. Tap on the page settings button in the address bar and then tap on 1Password.
  3. Tap on the menu button (it looks like a circle with three lines) and then tap Settings.
  4. Tap Accounts & vaults.
  5. Turn off the new vault that you just created.

I love the way that Logins have such granular Autofill behaviour, and I dream of the day this same conditional logic could be applied to these active Identity records.

Thanks for the feedback! While I can't make any promises, I've filed a feature request on your behalf. 🙂
