Suggestions for different way to use 1Password

I have been using a free iPhone app called Key Ring to store and use my store loyalty cards, library cards, Medicare card, etc. I had about 15 different cards stored.

Each time I have done a major iPhone update, however, as in moving from iOS 14 to iOS 15, all my cards disappear and I have to dig them all out and photograph them all over again.

This has gotten to be very annoying so I wonder can any of you smart users of 1Password come up with a way to store photos of such cards in 1P for quick and easy access/use?

One way that came to mind was to enter each card as a new credit card, by taking photos of the front and back of each card and adding those photos to the entry for that card under .

I was hopeful that perhaps some other, more experienced users of 1P might be able to put me on to an even more elegant way to use 1P for this purpose.

Many thanks.

    Hi @BikerBob38!

    I personally use Document items for this:

    Save important files in 1Password

    One way that came to mind was to enter each card as a new credit card, by taking photos of the front and back of each card and adding those photos to the entry for that card under .

    If you want to have everything inside the same entry, you can use attachments instead, so the document is added directly to the credit card item instead of a separate document.

    While waiting for a reply, I explored 1P further and decided to treat each card as an Identity and it works perfectly.
    Thank you for the feedback!
