Watchtower discrepancy between App and Viewed Only

Trying to clean up years of bad habits, reviewing the watchtower details.

I see a differene shown between the App and what I see online, the difference reported for the reused password is troubling.
Is this expected or do I have something not setup correctly?

    Hey @FreddyBeach34, thanks for the question. At the moment, 1Password 8 uses a newer implementation of Watchtower algorithms that the web app hasn't yet been updated to. This explains the inconsistency that you're seeing. We will continue to refine this and move all of our apps to use the same algorithms.

    I hope that clarifies things!
