4 years agoAdd options to change 1Password for Safari's icon
The icon for 1Password for Safari doesn't follow convention and clashes with the other icons on Safari.
Take a look at this screenshot using this community site as an example. The other icons on the Safari Toolbar (Noir, 1Blocker, Share) have sections that are transparent, and look pretty good against the page's theme-color
. This oddity is even clearer on a new window, where the 1Password icon is noticeably darker than the others.
1Password Version: 8.7.0 (Beta)
Extension Version: 2.3.1
OS Version: macOS 12.3.1

Thanks for confirmation about this being on the backlog, David! I think having this be an option for the Safari extension is a good compromise. I think for many of us complaining about this (admittedly small) issue, we just want 1Password to blend in, be a good citizen, and provide our passwords when asked without trying to draw attention to itself.

Thank you both for championing this feature. Since I use 1Password frequently, I personally like the look of the icon, as it makes 1Password easy to locate among my other extensions. Additionally, I'm someone who tends to switch between browsers, so I find the visual consistency of the icon helpful when using 1Password in the browser across different browsers.
Having said that, I can understand the appeal of having the icon match your other extension icons in Safari for a consistent and clean look. This remains an open item in our team's backlog and I've made sure that all your feedback has been heard by the team.

I've hidden the icon from Safari entirely because it looks so out of place. 😬

Guys seriously, the team behind Kagi just solved the exact same issue in 10 days with a smaller team, a smaller budget and a smaller user base. While we've been waiting for the same for 2 years here.
I don't know what's this forum is really here for. It's kinda embarrassing now...

Hey, same here, this is an ugly icon that does not fit in the safari design guidelines. Would love to see a more streamlined icon...

Thanks folks. I've made sure the team knows this is something you'd like to see happen.

I decided to give 1Password 8 on the Mac a chance despite my continued unhappiness with the lack of Mac Store availability.
In about 5 minutes I came across this post and uninstalled it, I cannot unsee this terrible icon.
I don't get why 1Password seems to have lost its way and turned into just another software company that cannot seem to be able to ship a polished product or release small quality of life improvements that your most fervent users care about.
The way this is going I'll have a few qualms to drop 1Password completely when the native Password app is good enough. Please show you care about your users.
