Tip: Never forget or lose an old password with 1Password's item history

Emily Chioconi by Emily Chioconi on

Addresses, credit card numbers, software licenses, and more. There’s a lot you need to keep track of to manage your online world.

Modern life can be messy, and it means we’re all likely to make a mistake at some point.

You might use 1Password to update a weak password, only to realize you still need the old one for a different website. Or you accidentally opened the wrong item in 1Password and replaced a set of important security questions and answers. Maybe a family member updated the password to your streaming service but forgot to click save, and now you still need the old login. Accidents happen!

In situations like these, it’s easy to think, “Uh oh, what now?”

Don’t panic – you haven’t lost access to any of your favorite accounts. And you won’t have to go through the tedious process of resetting the password. 1Password remembers the history of every item saved in your vaults. If you need to see the older version of any item, you can easily review older versions of it – including passwords, credit cards, and addresses. Even if you’ve archived or deleted an item, you can still select “restore” and bring it back to one of your vaults.

Ready to get that old item back? Learn how to revert to a previous version of an item or restore an archived or recently deleted item.
