macOS Applications and Quick Access
In 1Password 7, Quick Access was contextually aware of the macOS applications that had focus and could suggest an entry for those applications. You could add the link to applications by creating a URL in 1Password's entry that looked like: "app://
If it's no longer supported, I would very much like to request that feature be returned. It was very handy!
Thanks!

Hi @jjohnston:
You can link an app to a Login by searching for it in Quick Access, then choosing to fill it, and selecting "Fill & Update Login" in the dialog. Let me know how you get on with that!

That worked great! Love the way it shows the icons for the apps now as "Linked Apps".
A note to future users that might see this post: To get the "Fill & Update Login" option, I had to
1.) Find the item in Quick Access
2.) Select "More Actions" (by pressing the right arrow key or clicking the vertical "...")
3.) Selecting "Autofill"(I think you can press Shift-Return as a shortcut to selecting "Autofill" as well - still getting used to keyboard shortcuts in 1Password 8)
Not in the beta. This is killing me ☹️
Or go the other way and install the Nightly, which by now does include the surprises.
Sure I can work around it, it just really rubs me the wrong way. If you were looking for a way to piss off beta testers (who by definition are keen to see the latest cool stuff first), congrats, you found it.

We did not look to make anyone angry. If we had placed the features in the beta, they would have been there last week and could have potentially spoiled the surprise for everyone. There are many more betas and many more exciting things to come. I am 100% sure you will get the chance to find new things before the stable channel. Please keep an eye out for new and exciting things.
We're happy to have you on the beta, nightly or production channel. You'll always be a valuable part of this big, shiny, new 1Password 8.
spoiled the surprise for everyone
That's such a weird way to phrase this. People on beta aren't surprised by new features, they're excited to try them.
Not all features will appear in public beta builds before release.
AgileBits held this feature back so it could be part of the 1Password 8 press release cycle.That's fine! Telling people it was for their own good is weird gaslighting.
PeterG_1PHey volts 👋 greetings once again.
I don't think Tommy meant that the surprise would be un-welcome to folks on Beta (we figured there'd be a lot of excitement about this, actually!), but rather that a cool new feature which is included in the Beta, even at the last minute, isn't likely to remain under wraps for long. And we did want to provide a surprise "... and one more thing" feature for the release of 1Password 8 for Mac, as you mentioned.
We hope that you do enjoy this new feature when you try it, and really appreciate the feedback you've provided us here over the course of the Beta. I'll have a chat with our development team too about whether there are any ways to smooth the occasional Beta > Production transition in cases like this in the future.
