    Hello folks, 

    I'm happy to share that you can now add Zen Browser as an additional browser to 1Password for Windows. Follow these steps: 

    1. Install 1Password in Zen Browser from the Firefox Browser Add-ons Store
    2. Add Zen Browser as an additional browser to 1Password: Connect additional browsers to the 1Password app


    A couple of notes:

    • Make sure that Zen Browser is installed system-wide with admin permissions in the C:\Program Files folder.
    • Zen Browser is not an officially supported browser and you might run into unexpected issues. If you see those same issues with a supported browser like Firefox then let us know by starting a new discussion and we can investigate.

Hello everyone,

The old process of manually vetting browsers resulted in only a very limited number of browsers being supported, the amount of work required to vet a browser made it impossible to review and approve every browser that was requested by customers and only a small number made it through the process. This told our team that we needed to change the process and that's why we're hoping to release a custom additional browsers feature in the future so that you can use any browser with 1Password for Windows whether our team has approved it or not.

Your requests and feedback are important and are all considered by the team. Which features are implemented (and when) depends on a variety of factors that include: consideration for our existing product roadmap and planned features, urgent bug fixes that need to be prioritized over feature requests, available development resources, other customer feedback, and more.

Please continue to voice your feedback, it helps us to make 1Password better for everyone even if a specific feature isn't implemented right away. 🙂
