1Password X not remembering setting

alanper

When using the password generator in 1Password X I change the setting "Symbols" so that the generated password will include symbols. The password generated includes symbols and all is good. However, when I close the Password Generator screen and go back, the "Symbols" setting is disabled again. i.e. 1Password X is not remembering/saving the previous setting when I enabled it.

Thank you for taking the time to report this, @alanper. You're right, at the moment the Strong Password Generator doesn't remember any changes to your preferences. This was a conscious decision we made as we wanted to default to a strong password (i.e. it's too easy to configure a weak recipe for a website that requires a short password) but I can see how it can become a pain in the neck to have the settings constantly reset. We'll need to find a way to address both concerns.

Thanks again for the feedback,

I also find this decision not to save my preferences annoying. It's a setting that falls into the category, "we know better than you, but won't tell you." A notification could address this.
