ModeratorThanks again for the feedback, I've shared all of your comments with the team that's working on item creation and, while I can't promise any specific changes, they'll take your comments into account when planning future changes to how items are created in the 1Password app.
Are your mom and in-laws using email aliases as well? Or do they mostly use the same email address for everything? The latest beta version of the 1Password app allows you to choose which email address is suggested by choosing a default identity: Choose your default identity and credit card items
This change will make it to the stable version as soon as possible.

Marking a post as a solution to a thread doesn't mean that the issue/request itself is solved or closed. It's a way to highlight the most up-to-date answer for anyone who stumbles onto the thread in the future.

It literally says "✔️Solved" at the top of the page, and when people ask why, you say "it doesn't mean that it's solved." This is absurd.
