Experiment #4 – New interface in 1Password.com’s vault view

The current website is barely usable on mobile in fully zoomed out view.

Hey, philmcole, thanks for the feedback! Mobile support is something that's on our minds as well. You're right that it hasn't been a priority for us. Right now we're focused on improving the desktop experience for the web app, which has languished a bit.

We are getting closer to having mobile support, though. If you resize your browser small enough, you'll see the sidebar collapses away and slides back in only when you hover on the left side. This doesn't help a ton on phones right now, but it's indicative of the flexibility the new layout will give us, so we can continue improving.

instead of hiring the boring developers who actually build and fix things

To be clear, I'm one of the boring developers building this thing. 😎 I've been at 1Password since 2010, and I can assure you that while we've always prioritized our customer support, our engineering team is much larger. We're tackling a wide variety of problems, but we recognize the need for maintaining the stuff we already have, and that's where this project comes from. Our desktop and mobile apps have received more attention than our web app lately, and we needed to course correct.

I hope we'll be able to win you over again this year. ❤️
