Quality of life issues with 1Password 8
Hi,
As a long-time user of 1Password, I wanted to report on QoL issues I have with 1Password 8 (that's not to say 8 doesn't bring improvements as well).
1Password Quick Access behaves unintui...

3 years agoHi EarthAura! Down to 10 days this time, we're making progress. 😄
Thanks for clarifying, I see your point about how Quick Access hangs on to previous searches and will log a feature request to be able to customize this.
Likewise with where exactly the app focuses after being opened from Quick Access. It seems the current behaviour is that focus remains where it last was (be that the sections in the left side menu, the list of items, or item details) if the app was open already, and focuses the search bar if it wasn't already open, in case that helps predictability in the meantime.
If you're open to sharing, I'd be interested to know more about your workflow for both of these actions. For example, are you using the additional item menu within Quick Access to log in to websites? Are you opening the main app via Quick Access and then tabbing to copy a specific field?
Regarding the Apple Watch behaviour you're seeing, thanks for the additional details. Could I confirm that this only happens when the watch is in sleep mode? Either way, I'd like to ask you to create a diagnostics report from your Mac:
Please attach it to an email addressed to support+forum@1password.com
and include a link to this thread so I can connect it to our conversation. Hopefully a look under the hood will give us a better idea what's happening. Ideally the report is generated immediately after reproducing the behaviour.
Lastly, (a benefit of our reply pace perhaps) default vaults have made it to 1Password 8! You can find the option in the app's settings:
Your earlier observations about creating new items via the browser extension button vs. the inline option still apply, but selecting the same target vault in both the app and browser extension settings should at least unify the results.
Let me know how that goes if you try it out, looking forward to investigating further with you!
