Hello @vonpadraig! 👋

Thank you for the feedback! Can you clarify your request a little further? As you mentioned, you can already see when you've changed your password last by using an item's password history: View and restore previous versions of items

Looking at password history means nothing when the password was never changed.

I'm not sure that I understand. If you've never changed your password then there is no "last changed" date since the password is the same as what you've always used.

I look forward to hearing from you. 🙂

    1Password folks. This is plea.

    Please understand this reasonable request of @vonpadraig. Here's what you are missing. We need to be able to know, quickly and easily when any given PASSWORD was last modified, not when any given password entry in the 1Password database was modified. His example above, about CostCo, makes this very clear, but your team didn't understand it. Go back and read it again.

    In fact, the stakes are much much higher in my case. I have had the worst thing happen - my 1Password vault was breached. Remote access, my single password was guessed, and the attacker accessed... everything. Credit cards, Financials, IDs, logins, info for the entire family, everything. We were lucky to catch it the same day, and have done everything we can to lock our critical accounts down, and cancel our cards. It's total red alert.

    With 1Password, I have changed the password (of course, that was my error). But I am faced with replacing every single password in the database. But which are they? I need to be able to know when any PASSWORD was last modified, not just when the ENTRY was last modified. Ideally this would be a feature. For example, you could make a custom folder will all passwords that haven't been changed in XX time, or since YY date.  Or, it could be a feature in Watchtower, where you can SEE the AGE of all passwords.

    PLEASE, take this feature request seriously. 

    Thanks!
