Preferences toggle for Case Sensitive / Spotlight Search

Why is the only search option in both 1Password 8 and Quick Access case sensitive when both 1Password 7, 1Password Mini and the iOS/iPadOS apps are not? Will case sensitivity be turned off eventually...

Hi hmgnsd, thanks for contacting us here!

Regarding case sensitivity: I'm not sure what the current specific plans are for this, but I have put in a request to the developers on your behalf to consider either turning off case-sensitivity or adding a toggle. 😃

Also, Spotlight can still search 1Password results on iOS/iPadOS, will this functionality return to 1Password 8?

Unfortunately I can't speak to this, as we generally don't announce features / functionality before any given thing actually makes it into the app. We're going with the approach of "under-promise, over-deliver" - although I will certainly note for our developers that this is something you'd particularly like to see. Thank you for letting us know! 👍

Quick question: can I ask what's the virtue of this Spotlight-searching-1Password functionality to you (as opposed to something like Quick Access?)
