Missing App Icons

Hi nosillacast,

I'm so sorry I misunderstood the problem 😅. You're right, 1Password 7 for Mac was able fetch app icons from the apps themselves. This technique is incredibly cool but it came with some drawbacks that we'd like to smooth-out in 1Password 8. The icon was fetched live rather than being stored as a custom icon on the item. This means that if you moved to a Mac without that software, or used 1Password on a different platform, that icon would be inconsistent (because that app isn't available on the other device or platform).

To alleviate those inconsistencies, we are leaning more heavily into Rich Icons and Custom Icons in 1Password 8. We want you to have beautiful icons wherever you use 1Password, and to do so we need to leverage our common icon platforms.

My favourite solution would be to get any missing apps added to our Rich Icon service so that all 1Password users would get those lovely app icons automatically. I will file issues to add Rich Icons for Affinity Publisher and mimoLive right away. Let me know if there are others that you'd like us to add.

For a more bespoke icon (I'll leave the particulars to our designers but) one possibility would be to allow app selection via the "Choose a new icon…", or maybe allowing users to drag-and-drop an app onto the item icon while in Edit mode. It wouldn't be automatic the way Rich Icons are, but it would allow customers to see those icons in all their 1Password apps.
