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:
- Install 1Password in Zen Browser from the Firefox Browser Add-ons Store
- 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.

Hi,
Long time family subscriber here. Actively considering switching away from 1Password for my next subscription cycle as I move my usage to Zen. As a courtesy to long time service provider (1Password) created this community account to leave feedback.
1Password (and password managers in general) are fairly niche service where majority of audince are (at least to some extent) privacy and security oriented. It is true that most of your customers are likely on OSX/Linux or some other forms of Unix-based OS's but life and (more importantly) family drive us to use Windows sometimes. Your audience being privacy and security focused are very likely to stay away from Chromium-based browsers, independent of what your telemetry says, since most of us would have telemetry disabled. Zen has rapidly gained popularity among this audience with exodus from Arc and active development status.
Now to my feedback. To your Product Managers: please try to improve your understanding of your audience and rely less on telemetry data lake, which will be skewed away from privacy-focused crowd. Follow the trends and do research in thematic internet-spheres. To 1P_Blake: I understand you are a community manager and do not own the roadmap but influencing roadmap with community sentiment should be a must. Phrase "It's on the roadmap" means literally nothing if it's not prioritised for upcoming development cycle. As a roadmap owner I can tell you that without strong advocacy it will be forever punted. I would assume yoru customer acquisition trends are very good if your leadership is not worried about retention.
Best of luck, I enjoyed using 1Password while it stayed relevant.

Welcome to the community! By default, 1Password directly supports the most popular browsers such as Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and more. Each supported browser has to go through a vetting and approval process and this process created a situation where many browsers never had the chance to be added due to the work required and the number of browsers requested by the community.
We've invested in building a feature to allow you to add the browser of your choice to 1Password. This allows you to personally control which browser you use and add to 1Password. The feature is currently available for macOS and Linux and we're actively working to build and release it for Windows as well: Connect additional browsers to the 1Password app
