    Hello everyone, 

    I'm happy to share that, with the latest update to the stable version of 1Password (8.10.78), our team has added a setting to turn off the prefilling of usernames when creating new items in the app:

    You can find instructions on how to update here: How to keep 1Password up to date

    Thanks again for all of the feedback and for always helping us make 1Password more useful for your needs and your workflows.

That is a new issue I had not seen before.  I would understand if it was using either the username most used in a vault/account or the last username used (neither of which is the case).

This seems to be a bug. 

  • There is no setting to change this behavior in the macOS application
  • I have checked in the Business Admin portal -- no setting
  • Even when creating a new account in my personal account on the macOS Desktop application, it is using an email from my Business account
