That could also have been avoided by not rewriting in Electron, which I truly think 0 users wanted, whereas the old app warranted nominations for the Apple Design Award.

It’s still not too late to reverse that decision.

Incidentally, how would telemetry tell you that people miss a removed feature if said telemetry was not in place before removal?

1Password for iOS does not use Electron. It uses Apple's SwiftUI. Our iOS app is what contains the Apple Watch app.

The point was if we'd had telemetry while prioritizing this work, we would've known it was something many people were actually using. The little data we had showed that was not likely the case. Had we known, we would've prioritized differently.

Fair enough, I stand corrected, and agree that telemetry would be useful there.

Makes me wonder though, if there is a SwiftUI codebase, why not maintain the macOS app as a native app too?
