Downgrading to v7
I'm having so many problems with v8 that I'd like to downgrade to v7. Is that possible and will anything break if I do it?
Thanks,
fort

I have 1Password on multiple devices, and my entire life runs on it. I considered upgrading to version 8, but after seeing all of the issues, I think I'll stick to version 7 for as long as I can.

!Password 8 is definitely not what I expected from 1Password! Complaints on my laptop Mac range from the 1Password window hiding in the background when you need to fill a second item, too many clicks to find your favorites, 1Password not always accepting my watch to open the file, 1Password for Safari not allowing more choices for entry when the same website has more than one password entry. Lots of little things that make this a headache instead of easy to use. Seriously thinking of rolling back to 1Password 7 on all devices

I'm in Safari. I click on the 1P8 extension and a window opens up that blocks the User Name and PW fields to fill in. This window cannot be moved or resized. Makes no sense that this passed beta. Just one of multiple issues I have. Seems like pw8 is not ready for prime time and rolling back to pw7 is the right move.

I did it on three computers, worked fine.

Still on 7, was thinking of upgrading 8. This thread answers my questions pretty good, sounds like 8 is the typical electron garbage.
8n't happening! - 1P_Dave

Thank you for the reply. We're definitely taking the feedback from everyone to heart and working hard to make 1Password even better. đ

I'm sorry that Chrome is hanging when you use Quick Access. Our developers are aware of this issue and are investigating. We hope to release a fix in a future update to 1Password.

I would advise to move away from using the software of this sketchy greedy unscrupulous company

Agree that v8 is a step backwards in terms of stability and usability. I'm on Mac Monterey and get beachballs frequently when using Quick Access. Chrome then hangs for a minute or so before things free up and start to work. I think the UI is more confusing now also, but I don't remember specifically what was giving me grief. And why can't I set the default vault for saving new items??? I swear I used to be able to do that.
Gonna go back to v7.

andrew_l_1P thereâs a lot of topics unsolved in the forum regarding 1pw8. They go from, searching mechanism to not properly working iOS(doesnât auto fill // doesnât bring the keyboard âpasswordsâ option // the main screen is really confusing // most apps doesnât recognize it(Fido, VirginâŠ) and many more you can find in the forum.
And all used to work properly on 1pw7 so stop saying itâs and iOS issue. Search for âdowngrade to 1pw7â and youâll seeâŠ

Apologies for the late reply here, @RNRNRNRN1717, hopefully you're all sorted now but yes that's correct. The data you see in your account on 1Password.com will populate in the apps once you sign in.
@dj1P,
Apologies as well for not seeing this until the recent bump. We do have an open feature request to collapse nested tags, I've added a proxy vote on your behalf. I'd welcome this feature too so I hope we'll see it in future updates! Regarding editing a tag's name, this can be done by right-clicking the tag:
I hope you'll try 1Password 8 again in the future, we're here to offer support either way. đ
