Hello folks,
The latest version of 1Password for Firefox (8.12.21.2) is now available from the Firefox Browser Add-ons store. You can update using this guide: How to keep 1Password up to date in your browser
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we worked to release the new update.

ModeratorHello randomaccountname1337 thanks for reaching out!
Generally speaking, we try to keep updates coming evenly across operating systems and browsers, but it's not always possible to maintain that 100%. Each app store has different processes for allowing an update or app in their store. The Firefox process is quite robust, so sometimes it can take a little longer for updates to be pushed through here. Our team work closely with our friends at Mozilla Firefox to ensure a speedy update, but sometimes it can take a little longer.
With this in mind, you might like to consider using the Beta version which is self-hosted:
Let me know if you have any questions.

The problem is beyond "robust" or a "little longer." The Firefox extension has a long history of being delayed by Mozilla, but this is by far the worst example. I opened a case with support a couple of weeks ago over this too, and they acknowledged there was an issue with getting the extension reviewed by Mozilla. I've asked for another update but haven't heard back yet. The last published release for Firefox was 8.12.4 on 2/24/26. 5 (FIVE!) releases have come and gone with no update to Firefox, including the latest 8.12.12 which was released almost 2 weeks ago.
Using the self-published beta releases misses the point for those of us who want to only use what is marked as stable production.
Please see if you can get a specific update from support about why this keeps happening to 1P with Mozilla and when we can expect it to be resolved.
Thanks.

Future updates to 1Password for Firefox required some additional Firefox-specific work. As a result, getting an update out is taking a bit longer than expected due to the need to complete this work. Our team is actively working on this and collaborating with Mozilla to deliver a new update as quickly as possible.
Currently, version 8.12.4.46 is the latest production release for Firefox and it is safe to continue using it. We'll update this thread as soon as we have more to share.

Did not know that beta was self-hosted. Just switched over to the Beta version on FF. Thanks for the prompt response! One more question, is there going to be a chance in the future that autofill & save customized options can be universal on the account instead of per browser settings so i don't have to manually change things every time?

Hi randomaccountname1337 thanks for the update.
While I can’t make any promises, I’ve filed a feature request internally to share your idea with our Product team. They regularly review feature requests from our customers to consider what should be added to future versions of 1Password. Your feedback, along with feedback from our other customers, helps them immensely with their planning.
Let me know if there's anything else you need assistance with.
