Question

Need a PDF viewer please!

Are there any plans to incorporate a PDF viewer in 1Password when using the desktop version?

This is 2024 and it makes no sense that a pdf file must first be downloaded before it can be viewed.

Hello @Timmer! 👋

Thank you for reaching out. All of your information in 1Password is end-to-end encrypted and 1Password must download a file and then decrypt it somewhere on your device before it can be opened.

That being said, on the Mac you can open this file in a preview window from a temporary folder that 1Password creates in the background and I've let the team know that you'd like to see similar functionality be introduced in 1Password for Windows as well.

Thank you for the feedback!
