What happened to the ability to view existing passwords on V8?

I'm trying to use an old MacBook and I need to be able to view the existing passwords to try to get into the system. I can no longer go to my 1Password on my iOS (or my Mac) and review all possible combinations. This makes this app totally useless in my opinion.

    Totally understandable and I would've been the same in your situation, so no worries there! We're only one message away if you need help or have any questions about using 1Password :)

    Thanks. I should have looked at the update information for V.8, but I was a bit stressed at the time trying to get that old unit working and skipped the step.

    Thank you so much. It was hard to believe the ability to see it had been deleted. Hopefully I can get back into my old laptop.

    Mac: Look at the 🔽 at the end of the password field, click it and then reveal.

    iOS: Long press on the password field and select reveal from the pop up.
