Unable to sort Credit Cards by Expiry Date

In 1Password 7, I found it helpful to be able to sort my credit cards by expiry date, which allowed me to keep track of when they would expire.

However, I've noticed that in 1Password 8 this sorting feature is no longer available on both MacOS and iOS.

As someone who travels frequently, I can't always depend on being in a location where my expiring credit card will be automatically replaced by the bank. Therefore, I need to set my own reminders and occasionally replace a card manually.


1Password Version: 1Password for Mac 8.10.0 (81000055)
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: MacOS 13.2.1 (22D68)

    FWIW I had gotten a notification that items were soon expiring when I first tried 1PW8. So I went to go check and had found there was no way to sort by end (card expiry) date as I have with 1PW7. This was yet another useful feature that has now been removed :(

    Why do we have so many cases like this of previous functionality that got removed, that now need to be resubmitted as new functionality with new development? Please add me to the list of those that would like this feature restored.

    For now I personally have moved back to 1PW7 since there is _far too much removed/missing functionality _in 1PW8 that previously existing with 1PW7 and earlier.

    Thank you for the feedback, I've filed a feature request on your behalf for a "Card Expiry" sorting option with the product team. 🙂

    Hi 1P_Dave

    Thank you for the information.

    Unfortunately, the expiring items section within the Watchtower is insufficient as it has to fit these hard-coded criteria:
    * credit cards, memberships, and driver’s licenses that are expiring within 2 months
    * passports expiring within 9 months
    * items that have already expired

    As of now in my 1Password 8 interface, that expiring items section is hidden as none of my items fit the criteria.

    It is incredibly powerful to have cards listed in the year of their expiry and sorted—you get an instantaneous overview.

    There is no fitting replacement in 1Password 8.

  • Hello @Eric3951! 👋

    With 1Password 8, you can use Watchtower to find credit cards that are either expired or expiring within 2 months:

    1. Open and unlock 1Password 8.
    2. Tap on Watchtower in the sidebar.
    3. Click Show Items under the Expiring section.

    You can read more here: Check for expiring items

    Does that provide a solution for your need to be aware of expiring credit cards? 🙂
