For example, if I have the following items in my vault:

3 years agoHi @Techrocket9, thanks for this. 👋 That's a neat trick, by the way!
1Password 8 does indeed handle sub-string search differently, and as viswiz has helpfully pointed out, this was done to support Unicode, which is necessary for us to be inclusive of folks who use languages other than English, which we think is a worthwhile goal.
However, this has had the effect of making search work differently than it did in 1Password 7, and we recognize that the substring search provided useful functionality for you. We're working on solutions to improve the search right now, and will look forward to sharing more when we have an update on this.
Thanks for your feedback, and for letting us know why that substring search is useful for your workflow. We'll take this into account as we go forward. Thank you for letting us know how we can improve! 🙌
