Feature required: Back button & tabs

Hi.

1Password has been my lifesaver since I have quite a few secret information to store for my companies and for myself.

However, when dealing with many data, copying and pasting or comparing two or more data for data coherence, the Back button and Tab feature would be very handy.

Am I the only one who feels that way?

    Hi @jakepark,

    To make sure I understand, do you mean that you are trying to compare different items in 1Password, and are asking for a feature to make it easier to switch back & forth between those items? If so, there are a couple things that might make it easier for you.

    First, you could add the same tag to the items you're trying to compare, so you can select that tag in the left sidebar of the main 1Password app. Only the items that have that tag would appear there, which should make it a little easier to switch between them. You can always delete the tag after you're done, if you want.

    Or if you want to view two or more items at the same time, you can open 1Password mini (the 1Password icon in your Mac's menu bar), find an item and view its details, then click the anchor button to open the item's details in a separate window that floats on top of all your other windows. You can position that so you can see the main 1Password app and the anchored window at the same time. You can also anchor multiple windows from 1Password mini so you have several open at the same time.

    Hopefully that helps! Or if I misunderstood, please let us know. Thanks!

    Thanks for the great hack! It solves my problem.

    Yet, similar UI to the Finder would be preferable, since it's easier to navigate than 1Password mini.

    Anyway, I appreciate your prompt response. Long live 1Password!
