I didn't find a way to solve this without doing a lot of manual work, so I'm assuming this goes right in the feature request bucket. Let's do this PM style:

Story
As an advanced search user I want to quickly identify stored entries with empty fields

Acceptance criteria:
AC1) Advanced search for empty fields like tags, passwords or usernames

Problem description & user feedback
A stored password might contain several empty fields and it's very hard via advanced search to identify these. Some things I ran into:

  • I have tags set-up, about 10 different ones, but to identify my passwords that were saved without tags (because the previous chrome extension didn't support adding those right away) I have to create 10 custom 'tag > is not' queries. (see screenshot)
  • This function is clearly not built for searching for multiple things of the same field as it switches the field type every time I add another rule
  • I would like an 'is empty' search field to quickly identify whether I have passwords where either the username was not stored properly, the password was not, the tags are empty, the account credentials need to be updated

    Hi @Charmander!

    Would a search "Number of tags is zero" work for you? Here is a screenshot of what it would look like in 1Password for Mac:

    Ah I see there’s a range of ‘number of’ filters, that would definitely work! Thanks I completely overlooked it because I expected the first search field to be only fields in stead of a logic based field like number of
