4 years agoConsidering other PW mgrs - would like a reply promptly
I've been a subscriber to 1P for years but have to say at this point I am strongly considering trying other PW mgrs.
1) The 'upgrade' to 1P8 is a major step backwards: We now have 1P taking up me...

Thank you for the reply. I've removed the screenshot from your comment since it contained your email address. I wasn't sure if you wanted to share that on a public forum.
I'm afraid that I've personally never used CleanMyMac or any other app cleaner on any of my Macs so I wouldn't be able to answer your specific questions about that. I can confirm that 1Password 8 for Mac doesn't have any junk files that need to be cleaned or removed to increase performance of either 1Password itself or your Mac. For more help with the specific app cleaner that you're using I suggest reaching out to their support team since they'll be in the best position to tell you why their app is showing the message that it is.
Having access to 'Favorites' made it easier to have quick access to the ones I use most often, particularly for logging into the foundation's hosting, website, and financial. 'Favorites' is really missed as something that was quick to access and often used.
Quick Access should automatically suggest the correct login for the website or app that you're using. If it's not doing that then can you make sure that 1Password in the browser is installed: Get started with 1Password in your browser
If that still doesn't work then can you tell me the address of one of the websites where your login isn't being automatically suggested in Quick Access along with the browser that you're using? (Don't post any usernames or passwords, just the website address.)
Did I miss an update? or are you referring to one that is 'in progress'? because last I checked 1P8 still did not have Watch working with it. And I was hoping to see you build upon the capabilities of the Watch app (ex. having access to our logins even if not in reach of iPhone or Mac) rather than taking this feature away.
My apologies, I thought that you were referring to the ability to unlock the 1Password 8 for Mac app using your Apple Watch and not to the 1Password Apple Watch app. We’re actively working on an Apple Watch app and we’re very excited about it. We weren’t able to get it in the initial launch but it is coming soon. 🤗 Until then you can run 1Password 7 alongside v8 to use the Watch app in that version.
If you do choose to temporarily use 1Password 7 alongside 1Password 8 on your iPhone/iPad then make sure that Password AutoFill is only enabled for 1Password 8 so that you don't end up with any duplicates when saving logins in other apps:
- On the Home screen, tap Settings.
- Tap Passwords > AutoFill Passwords.
- Turn on AutoFill Passwords.
- Select "1Password" and de-select "1Password 7".
Please let me know if you have any questions. 🙂
