Why are there 2 of each document listed in "All Categories"?

Every document that I've added to 1Password ends up as 2 identical documents in the All Categories listing. The only difference between them is the modified date. The created date is identical across all pairs, and the modified date is identical across all pairs. What could cause this? I want to eliminate one of the pair if they truly are just duplicates cluttering my listing.

    Also, I have duplicates for EVERY attachment... what could've happened on the modified date (4/21/21) that is shared on ALL duplicates?

    Is there an easy way to select all duplicates and remove one (i.e. based on a creation or modification date)? Any other possible ways??

    I think I figured it out. Related to multiple vaults and sharing. Since I was looking at "All items", I guess the shared (duplicates) is what I was seeing. It would be nice to be able to screen out shared items when view "all" but perhaps that's counterintuitive. In any case, I'm fine for now.

    Thanks for the update, @kenj, glad to hear you found the cause! If you haven't already, I recommend exploring collections: Use collections to create custom groups of vaults

    As a personal example, I have some logins that are my accounts but need to be shared with some family members. Instead of having one copy in my Private vault and another in a shared vault, I use a collection to group the relevant vaults together so all the items are still visible in one place and everyone who needs access still has it. Your use case may vary, but try it out and let me know if you have any questions. 🙂
