I always use the password search function and now its gone. Its aggrivattion because i am constantly manageing passwords. Now i have to scroll through a list of over 200 random named websites and apps. This is a deal killer for me.
I haven’t tried mobile, however the ability to search passwords is still there on the Windows version. The magnifying glass search button is in the top-right corner, which creates a query such as this:

Whoever is behind a lot of the ux changes is a bit of a mor0n. Not only in making changes without making it known to people, but they don’t necessarily make it anything easy to figure out. It’s just a lot of guessing by Users.
I guess I’m kind of used to it from testing new programs for jobs before, having spent years beta testing games, etc. So I do tend to slow down and try to find things multiple ways, but it should be a more user friendly than it has been lately.
