bwoodruff··on 1Password 8 for iOS is now in Early Access
Thanks again. I haven't been able to reproduce that on my iPhone XS Max, but I have reported it to development for further investigation. We'll continue to optimize the app as we move toward a general availability release.

Thanks for sharing. Are there any particular tasks that are sluggish, or is it an overall feeling? What hardware are you running on?

Hey seaghost. The majority of the user interface is built with SwiftUI with a little UIKit, and the backend is our core written in Rust. Have you had a chance to install the app yet? If so, what makes you feel it isn't native?

Timelines are still fairly opaque but v7 works with Monterey today.

Standalone vaults (including 3rd party sync) will not be part of 1Password 8. You can read more about this here: https://1password.community/discussion/comment/602340/#Comme...

We are indeed using Electron for some elements of the app, but we’re strongly focused on delivering performance as a feature. Using Rust for the heavy lifting has enabled us to do that. Additionally one of the early concerns raised with Electron was that we might lose some of the tight integration with the OS that people have come to love and expect. We made sure that didn’t happen. Thanks for trying it out. I’m glad to hear it works well for you. - Ben, 1Password

You would also still have read-only access through the web app. :)

Thanks for taking the time to check out the white paper!

Understood. There will always be something cheaper. Just commenting on your point about:

> I think 3.33 euros per months is about a good valance.

:)

Interesting! I honestly hadn't seen the perspective that we were pushing 1Password in the browser _over_ the apps. We may need to look at our messaging on that. Personally I think the best experience comes from using both in conjunction, especially with the new mutual unlock feature.

> I don't like telling my less-technical family that this extension is okay, but absolutely don't trust any other extensions.

I do understand this dilemma, but I'm curious how you reconcile that against things like the benefits of filling from the extension avoiding the system clipboard & key loggers, the inherent phishing protection that comes from 1Password only suggesting credentials on sites where the URL matches your items, etc.

Telling folks the 1Password extension is okay and others are not is the approach we take internally.

Hey disgrunt. We have a number of VoiceOver users on Mac, so something doesn't sound quite right (no pun intended). Please reach out to our support team at support+mac@1password.com and we'll be happy to help.

This whole comment was a great read, and parallels how I personally feel about self-hosting. I have a homelab with my own servers where I love to play with this kind of stuff. Do I want the responsibility of setting up and maintaining the 1Password service all by myself as a production environment? Absolutely not.

I have more infrastructure in my basement than some small companies have in their entire organization. :D But in terms of relying on that infrastructure, run by me alone, for something as mission critical as 1Password? I'll pass.

An individual 1Password membership is €2.65+VAT per month when invoiced annually. - Ben, 1Password

Mostly true, though this may be of interest: https://github.com/1Password/1password-teams-open-source :) - Ben, 1Password

We continue to sell licenses for each 1Password 7 for Mac and 1Password 7 for Windows. These licenses are available within the app when downloaded from our website. We would strongly recommend 1Password membership as that is going to provide the best experience, but if you’d prefer a license for one or both of those products they are for sale. We recommend memberships as they address a number of requests our customers had that we were unable to accommodate without connecting to a server to perform the heavy lifting, such as 2FA, sharing, etc. It also significantly simplifies the purchasing experience: a subscription includes access to the latest versions of all the 1Password apps.

Yes, 1Password for Linux requires a 1Password membership. You can subscribe to any of our individual, family, or team accounts yourself, or if your company subscribes to 1Password Business you'll get your own family account for free. Regardless of how you subscribe you'll always have access to your data as each client has a local cache for offline use and your account remains active even in the event your subscription lapses. If you have any questions or feedback please feel free to reach out to us directly at support+linux@1password.com - Ben, 1Password

I'm not entirely sure this answers your question, but one of our founders, Dave, wrote a post that may give some context: https://dteare.medium.com/behind-the-scenes-of-1password-for... If that doesn't address your concerns please feel free to reach out to us at support+linux@1password.com — we'd love to chat. - Ben, 1Password

Hi rvz! Are you having performance issues with 1Password for Linux? I understand some folks are just anti-Electron based on what other vendors are putting out there, but the app has been quite responsive for me. Please feel free to reach out to us at support+linux@1password.com if you're experiencing any sort of sluggishness and we'll be happy to help. Thanks! - Ben, 1Password
bwoodruff··on 1Password for Linux
Really sorry to hear about that. You may've missed a database migration during the beta period. Please reach out to us and we'll be happy to help. support+linux@1password.com - Ben, 1Password

Thanks for the kind words! Glad to hear it is working out. We have beta support for mutual unlock of the Linux app and browser extension so you can unlock in the browser using your fingerprint.

Yes indeed it is. :)

Close: 1Password for Mac itself can still unlock using Touch ID on supported systems, it is just the integration between 1Password for Mac and the 1Password browser extension that is currently lacking. It is possible to use the 1Password Classic extension in order to have that functionality, but we're defaulting to the former now as there are so many other improvements you lose out on otherwise.
bwoodruff··on 1Password Secrets Automation
Thanks for the pointer! It looks like my colleague Oliver, who is on our extensions team, replied there. :) I hope what he had to say helps.
bwoodruff··on 1Password Secrets Automation
That is a documentation clarification that should be made. That exposed port in the docker-compose is only there so someone running a health check from the host could see it. The docker-compose should be updated to remove the port exposure. Thanks for bringing that up!
