Deleting of tags unclear

Please make it clear, in the Help and UI, that deleting a tag does not delete the items. This is a scary step where I don't want to guess.

    Hi @MartinNF! Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback here - I can definitely understand how deleting tags isn't as clear as it could be, and could lead to some anxiety over whether the associated items will be deleted as well.

    I've passed your feedback along to our Product team in the form of a feature request to see if we can get this clarified in both 1Password's UI and the favorites and tags support article. If you have any further suggestions or questions, let us know 😄

    So just to state it clearly here while you're working on updating the UI, is the following true:

    When you delete a tag, no items are deleted. Instead, the tag is just removed from all tagged items.

    Hi @GaryE55! I can confirm that deleting a tag does not delete any items, only removes the relevant tag from all items with that tag.

    If you have any further questions or concerns let me know 😄
