5 years agoLimited use in 3rd party apps with share sheet removal
I know this has been talked about ad nauseam, but I was hoping to get some advice or clarity on the matter.
As we all know, AgileBits removed the share sheet extension in 1P 7.8. For the most part...

5 years agoI find it extremely disappointed that another feature was removed without warning. This is not the first time, there seems to be a long history in removing features without telling or warning the users in advance.
If this was only a simple calculator app or a game, this would not be a big issue. But this App is managing our most valuable and most important data: our passwords. And it is essential that we can access this data in all cases. So you have a big responsibility to make sure that we can actually access our passwords. But with more and more features vanishing, it will get difficult to believe that 1Password is somehow reliable and trustworthy.
Which features are being killed next? It seems that using 1Password becomes a real danger to the user - it is completely unknown if we can access our accounts and services after the next 1Password update.
Right now, you've almost killed all support to third-party Apps. Focusing on Safari only is a really bad choice. Unfortunately Safari is not the center of the world, there are many other Apps which users rely on. And even by removing the action extension for 1Password you were very sloppy because you still advertise the presences of the extension (via URL scheme), so Apps supporting the action extension will still try to do this, but would only open an empty Sheet.
I really hope that you bring back the action extension. Otherwise there's no reason to stick with 1Password. Especially when we have to expect that some more features will be removed in the future.
