As JoelZumoff and others have delineated, the number of steps needed to generate a new password in the 1Password app is ridiculous. Version 8 seems to assume that users don't want to generate passwords when WE WANT TO, but only when 1Password thinks we should. 1Password users are very diverse, and your programming team seems to have misunderstood what many of us want to do quite often. We want the program to help us work quickly and efficiently. We do not want to have to constantly adapt to the programmer's whims and limited understanding. It is especially frustrating to have useful features removed in so many cases, from the generally superior interface of version 7. Worse yet, we are now up to version 8.9.4, and these errors and missing features, which users have been telling you about for months, have still not been fixed. We are told that version 8 has superior architecture and some useful new features, but too many things have been made worse.
