A few thoughts on Guest accounts

I'm currently playing around with Guest accounts and like the feature so far. There are however two things that "bug" me:
1. When Guests have not been assigned to a vault, they see a place holder that's called "Shared Vaults". What I don't like about that is that on that placeholder, the guest can see who's a member of the family, albeit only Firstname and Lastname. I would prefer if Guests would only see the place holder without the family members

  1. When someone has already shared a vault with a particular guest, you have no way of telling who has shared this vault. When you try to also share a vault with that guest, you only get the error message that guests can only have one vault. OK, you can get this info as a family organizer, but I would find it helpful, if you could get a message like "Family Member xyz already has shared a vault to this guest".

Any opinions on this?

    Hi @Manaburner! Thanks for letting us know how things are going. :) I'd be happy to answer your questions.

    Indeed, that's something we'd like to remove down the road. I'll let the team know you asked about it.

    Just to clarify, are you looking for an indication of what other family member shared the vault with the guest or what vault has already been shared with them? You can see who gives another person access to a vault in 1Password Teams, but 1Password Families is meant for personal use so advanced features like that aren't included.

    I think it would be sufficient to know who has already shared a vault with the guest. Then you can talk to that person, because you're in a family after all :)
