Totally piling on here. Removing the password generator with copy/paste functionality is a stunning example of HIPPO Human Factors egotistical maniacs attempting to engineer reality. There are many websites that simply don’t work with their “generate & fill” workflow. My bank, for example.

It’s frustrating enough for me, but for my wife whom I’m trying desperately to onboard into the world of password management, this is an impossibly impassible scenario. She basically has to reset her bank password all the time to log in. Which makes standard human interactions like “did you receive that deposit yet” excruciating.

And then on the 1Password forums, all the employees are these self-righteous pricks that summarily dismiss their users as being uncooperative, when the reality is, they removed working functionality and replaced it with garbage that just doesn’t work.

If you weren't aware, you can open the edit view for any particular entry to just change the password there.

But you can't tab between fields when in edit view any more because every version since 5 has been worse than the last.

What are the minimum features you need to be satisfied?

For me, it's the password generator, easy tagging/search, and the autocomplete in form inputs. I also like the multiple content types (sw licenses, passwords, random other info, credit cards, etc.). I don't need really anything else.

Not sure I get what you mean?
