Vault for Saving, setting a default on Mac

1PW on iOS has a preference for what vault to save new items to. Can you bring that same to the Mac client ? (Or maybe I just can't find where that setting is).
I have multiple vaults, and I don't want to save to my private one by default. Yes, I know you can move after, or I could click on save to vault when I first create on Mac.
I just have missed it a few times, and it would be nice to let me choose the default on Mac also.

    Need to be able to assign a default vault for saving. This is a must-have feature. Thanks.

  • Hi @kswisher,

    Regarding the default vaults for autofill, I did want to share some options with the 1Password browser extension as well as Quick Access:

    In the browser extension settings, you can choose which accounts and vaults you'd like enabled:

    When using Quick Access, you can click your account icon to select a different account or collection you'd like to use:

    All that said though, I understand the desire to see a default vault feature and have added you in the internal tracker Tommy mentioned. Thanks for sharing your feedback! 👍🏻

    Please also add me to the list of customers who are requesting that the ability to modify your default vault on Mac be added to 1Password 8. I am seriously considering downgrading to v7 for myself and will never be able to upgrade my other users to v8 without it. I also sorely miss the ability to set the default vault for autofill that was a feature of one of the older versions of 1Password. Those old versions only suggested autofill items in your default vault, but allowed you to temporarily change vault in the suggestions dialog if needed.

    I'll get you request added to an internal tracker we have for this feature request. Thanks so much for sharing.
