Here are some of my complaints about Quick Access (on macOS):

  • Quick Access seems to always search all vaults, regardless which collection is selected in the main app, and there is not an option to select the collection in Quick Access a la Mini.

  • When Quick Access is invoked while in a full-screen app, it opens on the desktop, removing the app from view. Mini would float over full-screen apps, not interrupting my work.

  • Logins pinned from Mini could show over full-screen apps, Quick Access opens passwords in the 1Password app and those windows cannot be moved over top of a full-screen app.

The second and third are particularly annoying when I am working on a remote computer that is in full-screen mode. Using 1Password on my local system to copy and paste credentials into the remote system (on which I cannot install 1Password) is more cumbersome with 1Password 8. Mini worked so much more smoothly, I did not even need to touch the mouse.
