4 years agoHey @modkat:
It seems counterintuitive, but your account password isn't used in the same way as a password is most other places. As Roustem mentions there, your account password and Secret Key are combined to derive your encryption and authentication keys for an account. No form of your password, hashed or otherwise, ever leaves your devices. Glad to hear you're enjoying 1Password, thanks for the kind words! :smile:
