Here's why I went back to 1Password 7
I tried 1Password 8 for a while and overall really like it, especially Universal Autofill, but I had to go back to 1Password 7 unfortunately. If any when I see these things have been improved, I'll ...
I keep trying 1password 8 but still may 14, 2022 now and keep having issues. Mostly with 'open and fill'. Or the separate 1password in safari app I need to install from the App Store is terrible. Never unlocks when I unlock the main 1password app. I'm so depressed by this since I too have been using 1password for as long as I can remember. At least from 2010 or 2011. It always worked but since 1password 8 its been nothing but problems. It has me wondering what to do now since I even signed up for a paid account last year. 1password 7 still works perfectly. The extension in safari works perfectly.
I have my elderly mother using 1password 7 and its ok but I still can't dream up upgrading her since the open and fill thing is so broken and she will be so lost to know what to do. So this is a huge problem for me. I know people say you can open and fill from the quick search thing in the menu bar but it works maybe 5% of the time. Usually it will open the page but not fill. This is such a huge problem for my mom now and me trying to get her to use 1password and keep safe.
Even in the main 1password 8 Mac app I would sort by most frequently used and now that is gone. Just so sad when so much has changed but in a negative way for me. I don't mean any anger toward the people at 1password. I don't know how long they plan to support 1password7 but I have to go back to using that and don't know when 1password8 will ever fix these things that are broken or if its not even a matter of fixing but just how it will be from now on?
I kind of regret getting a paid account now also since I miss being in control of my archive and where I could store it like on my Mac. Ever since I got a account or subscription seems like I have a lot of regrets by how things have changed. Sadly it has me wondering if I need to change to a different app now. I don't want to but I just wish it worked. I only use Safari yet its such a pain to use now with 1password compared to how well it still works with 1password 7.
