Support for Zen browser

Is there any workaround that can be used temporarly on windows? Its rather frustrating that there are workarounds for MacOS and Linux (https://docs.zen-browser.app/guides/1password) but when I'm on my windows machine I can't intergrate with the desktop app

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. 🙂

I understand the importance of ensuring security and compliance, but this delay for such a critical feature feels unwarranted. As both a business and personal user, the hesitation seems unnecessary given the circumstances. The Zen Team has gone above and beyond to ensure their app signatures meet your requirements, adhering strictly to your guidelines. Despite this, there doesn't appear to have been any progress or changes on 1Password's side.

While I appreciated the exception made for Arc on Windows, this seems to be the only instance of flexibility. Is there any way to expedite this process? Perhaps there's someone specific I could reach out to for further advocacy, as it feels like these concerns are not being addressed.

Many Zen users, including myself, are facing significant challenges with this on Windows. It's increasingly frustrating and makes me reconsider continuing with 1Password. I deeply value the platform but having to log in every time I need to access resources in my preferred browser undermines the user experience. This functionality should be a user-driven choice, not one dictated by hardcoded limitations.

This thread has been open for 3 and a half months. Has any progress been made?

1P_Dave Can I ask why you stopped approving new browsers before you had the custom trusted browser feature ready on all platforms, especially the biggest (Windows)?
I really don't get it, and it really sucks to see that you're apparently still not working on it, you're just passing along feedback that people "want it"?

I thought the days of 1Password being a Mac-first company were somehow over, but I guess not... :(

I guess to get your team to approve a new browser, it has to be built for Mac-first, like the Arc browser, to get your team to approve it even after you have "stopped" doing so.. :/

Any details you can share around this? Is it just a ticket on some board nobody looks at, or is it planned? Either literal support for Zen or a "whitelist" of browsers supported on Windows?

Thanks again for the feedback. 🙂

It is literally Firefox with another front-end. Just allow it

Thank you everyone for your feedback, I've passed all of your requests along to the team. 🙂
