Categories- why does drivers license show number without extra click and others don't

@jkaplan: It's something we can consider doing...but the idea with showing information inline is that it is not sensitive information. For example, we show usernames with Login item titles to make them easier to distinguish. A social security number, drivers license, or other ID though (passport?) is generally something we don't want to parade around though, so I think it's not quite the same thing. Interesting suggestion though! :)

@jkaplan - It's just the way those two different Categories are organized and templatted (is that a word? It is now!). In general, we try to obfuscate any information that could be sensitive. And unfortunately, Social Security numbers have become such, in a way that Drivers License numbers have not. Hence why one is obfuscated (requiring a click to reveal or display in Large Type) and the other is not (visible right within the record with no additional steps).
However, if you like, you can click "Edit" on the Social Security number record in question, and then click the three dots next to the SSN field, and change the field type from "password" to "text" - this will leave that field permanently revealed.

Thank you for the workaround. Yes, I understand the security piece however once you get passed the initial password/Face ID you can see the information with just another click anyway. Thanks for the tips/feedback!

Sure thing! Glad Lars was able to help. Just wanted to point that out since for some people, "shoulder surfers" in the workplace or at school can be a real concern. Cheers! :)
