Support for Zen browser
Hi!
There's this new browser called "Zen browser"
It's based on Firefox but the 1password extension doesn't work with the desktop app
1Password Version: Not Provided
Extension Version: N...
Hello everyone!
Thank you all for the continued feedback! For security reasons, the 1Password desktop app will by default only connect to supported browsers such as Firefox, Chrome, Brave, Edge and Arc. If you're using a Mac then you can add Zen Browser as an additional browser to the desktop app:
- Open and unlock the 1Password for Mac desktop app.
- Click on 1Password next to the in the menu bar.
- Click Settings.
- Click Browser.
- Click Add Browser and choose your browser from the Applications folder.
Adding additional browsers is currently only available for the Mac and Linux. We're not regularly adding new supported browsers individually since that isn't a long-term and sustainable solution however I've shared your requests to support Zen Browser with our product team. We hope to bring the custom browsers feature to 1Password on other platforms (like Windows) in the future.
For the time being, you may still be able to use 1Password in Zen Browser on your Windows PC but you'll need to unlock it separately from the desktop app using your account password.-Dave
I think it's pretty ridiculous that the 1password team can't keep feature parity between their apps, if a major feature like this isn't available cross-platform, especially this far off, why are you not prioritizing it, or at least providing a temporary solution? Zen browser isn't a small fork by any means, it has over 20k stars on github, which is surely a fraction of the userbase. The source code is all there, the code is signed, what is the big holdup for you guys? Giving all your users these useless canned responses to nearly every single user request is a really quick way for your users to lose faith in your ability to drive features they want and need, interactions like this are what's continuing to push people to open source solutions like bitwarden.
