Support for Zen browser

@faser

Thanks for the reply. Since Zen Browser isn't a supported browser, integration between the desktop app and the browser extension won't work. You might be able to use 1Password in the browser with Zen Browser (although you might run into issues since the team hasn't tested 1Password in that browser) but you'll need to unlock the extension separately from the desktop app using your account password.

There are many different browsers that users have requested support for and custom trusted browsers allow everyone the use of their favourite browser with 1Password, even if they're not supported. The custom trusted browsers feature has been a hit on the Mac and I've let the product team know that you'd like to see it be introduced for Windows as well. Thank you for the feedback!

Hi Dave, I would also be very interested in using 1Password in Zen on Windows. As I have been using 1Password for ages, I find it difficult to use a browser that is not supported by 1Password.

Zen is sort of the open source alternative to the “Arc” browser, which is already supported by 1Password and is trusted by default. Due to a fatal security vulnerability in Arc (already patched), many users are now considering switching to Zen.

What are the chances that Zen will be classified as a trusted browser in the near future?

Although the “Custom Trusted Browser” function on macOS is very practical and also desirable on Windows, I think it is easier for the developer team to classify the browser as trusted than to provide the function for Windows. Especially since the browser (Zen) is completely open source and based on Firefox, the security evaluation should be relatively easy.

Thank you very much!

The team previously conducted extensive vetting of each individual browser that was added as a supported browser to 1Password. Since there are so many browsers out there, and it was impossible to vet each one, this process was only conducted for a small number of browsers that were being used by a certain threshold of our customers and that left other browsers behind.

As far as I'm aware the team isn't planning to bring back the old individual browser vetting and approval procedure as a regular process since not many browsers meet the threshold and it isn't sustainable. I've passed your comments along to the team so that they know that you'd find the custom trusted browsers feature useful if it was added to 1Password for Windows so that you can use Zen Browser (and potentially other unsupported browsers of your choice) with 1Password's app integration feature.

+1 for the option to add unsupported browsers in windows 1password. I would like to use a firefox fork like floorp or zen browser with integration to the desktop app

I'm not sure if there's an easier to way or more preferred way to register interest. But I'd love to have this feature on both Windows and Linux! 🙂

I would like to register interest for this too please tell the team to add it to window versions soon!

@PurplProto and @DgN

I've shared your interest and requests with the team. 🙂

Updated 1password to nightly build for the custom browser feature, later to realize it is a mac only feature.

I would love to see Zen support added, or the custom browser feature added to the windows client!

+1 for the trusted browser feature on Windows. I wanna use Zen, Floorp and Opera. You guys are basically the Apple of password managers now (walled garden, I know it's not completely the same, but still).

I've been using 1Password for many years, and I really do like it, but if this trusted browser feature doesn't get added soon, I'm gonna switch to Bitwarden.
