Rename categories: Social Security Numbers is an American term

Hi

Is it possible to rename the category "Social Security Numbers" to something that is locally relevant? In New Zealand, we all have IRD (Inland Revenue Department) numbers. Other countries probably call them something else.

If its not possible to rename the category on a per user basis, perhaps could we have a "translation" for users in the New Zealand locale that has a more locally appropriate name? Its a minor but annoying usability issue that I keep stumbling over. I have to remember, "oh yes, this is a US product and they call IRD Numbers something different" each time.

Its great to see your focus on usability in your latest blog post https://blog.1password.com/product-update-features-and-security/. Would love a small fix for this one.

thanks!

    Hello @SteveP! 👋

    Thank you for the feedback! I can certainly understand the pain here, I'm in Canada and we call them "Social Insurance Numbers" here. I'll pass along your comments and request to our product team so that they can look into better localizing category names to different locations in the future.

    For the time being, you can rename the title of the item which is what I did. Would that work for you as a workaround? Or are you creating new "Social Security Number" items regularly?

    Hi Dave. Thanks for the super fast reply.
    Yes, individual items in the category are named for what they are. It is the category name in the left menu (and when creating new items) that i keep tripping over.
