How does Smart Folders work with regard to non MAC platforms/versions?

I am aware that Macs have Smart Folders and the other platforms don't. My MAC is also dying, being 8 years old. I have done little on the MAC and Smart Folders but I would like to see it implemented elsewhere, if possible to keep up with compatibility.

1Password Version: Windows 4.6
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Windows 7 SP1
Sync Type: Not Provided

    Hi @wkleem,

    Right now, the way Smart Folders work on OS X is limited to OS X APIs that do not exist elsewhere, even on iOS. This isn't feasible to port at all.

    We do want to work on a better solution that's built specifically with cross-platform in mind and right now with our focus on 1Password for Families/Teams, we're starting with tags only, which works consistently on all platforms. We may be able to build on top of this and when it does, all apps benefit from it and this may apply to local standalone products as well.
