adding authenticator app to 1password.com should allow you to name it

When you add a security key to your account on my.1password.com, you are able to give it a name, which is pretty useful.

But adding an app, it will always just appear as 'Authenticator App', with no option to rename or annotate it (and you can only add one app)

I'm sure we all have a heap of different auth apps.. Google, MS, YubiKey, and then on different platforms such as Linux, iOS etc

Can we please have the ability to add a name when adding an authenticator app? It would be a very useful improvement.

I had to delete and recreate the one from my account, because I couldn't identify which app or platform "Authentictor App" was tied to

Thanks

    Thank you for the suggestion! I can definitely see how this would be useful for someone who uses multiple authenticator apps and, while I can't make any promises, I've filed a feature request with our product team. They'll consider adding this feature to 1Password in the future.
