Accessing Past Passwords via the iOS app

I accidentally generated a new password in the iOS app which overwrote a previous password. Is there any way to see that past password?

    Hi @leruckle,

    Did you edit the password of a Login item? If so, find that item in the Categories section, and when you view the details, you should see a Previously Used Passwords option. Tap on that to see the previous passwords that had been saved in that item.

    On the other hand, if you edited the password of a Password item, you won't see the Previously Used Passwords section. However, if you sync your vault with 1Password for Mac, you can find that item in the Passwords category in the sidebar of the Mac app and click the Convert to Login button. The new Login item that is created will show the Previously Used Passwords (but keep in mind you can't change that item back to a Password item, in case that matters to you).

    Does this help? If you have more questions about that or if I misunderstood the problem, please let us know. Thanks!
