Trusted Browser Support - Windows
Good Day! Is there any word on when trusted browser support will be available for the Windows version? I am using Floorp as my browser (I wanted a Firefox/Gecko based browser that supports Workspaces) but the Desktop app doesn't integrate with Floorp, nor is there any way to add it as a trusted browser.
It appears this feature to add a trusted browser is only available for Mac, so I am curious when it will be made available for Windows as well?
1Password Version: 8.10.26
Extension Version: 2.15.1
OS Version: Windows 11
Browser: Floorp
Thank you for the requests and for the feedback! The team hopes to build a secure way to use unsupported browsers with the 1Password for Windows desktop app and I'll update this thread once there's more news to share.

Also it's not that we are asking for full fledged support like in macOS everybody here would be OK with an "unofficial" way via some config file like it is in Linux.
At least for now. I can understand that this feature might not have the highest priority because it might be tough to properly support it while only affecting a small user-base.
But please consider some hacky solution that is somewhat hidden by only being accessible through some instruction in this thread so only people that really need and look for it can find it.
This way you make a few of your users very happy without committing to a feature fully down the backlog. - RedPandaKFCNew Contributor
+1ing this as well (I also made a community account JUST to request this feature). This is kinda ridiculous that y'all still will not give any firm commitments, despite Mac and Linux having this capability for over a year and a half. Plus this comment thread plus related threads requesting additional browsers (Floorp and Zen being two I found easily) on Windows being some of the most viewed should clue your team in that this is clearly a important feature for windows users.

Thank you for sharing that feedback! I'm sorry that we're unable to provide an exact timeline for feature parity for trusted browsers. I can see that you've been in touch regarding this feature before, so I've made sure that your concerns are passed along to the team.

Its pretty weird that even after like 18 months since this feature got introduced on Mac, we still don't have it on Windows yet. We are not even asking for a new feature, this is literally just a request for feature parity. I don't understand why is it still not being prioritized. Typically, projects don't work on anything else except very critical bug/security fixes until feature parity is achieved which is clearly not happening here. This feature has been neglected on Windows since too long, something needs to happen very soon.

Just made a Community account for the express purpose of +1'ing this thread. I am a user of Thorium browser, which doesn't work with 1Password desktop app integration. Driving me bananas having to type in my password every time via the extension when the desktop app is already signed in. Regular Chrome works so well... Very suprised to learn the "Trusted Browsers" feature is already implemented for Mac, just not Windows. I really hope with all the community voices here that this request is looked at soon. Thanks!

Password for Linux has a
custom_allowed_browsers
file that should allow you to enable app integration with unsupported browsers, you can find instructions on how to use this file here.Thank you for the feature request regarding additional trusted browsers for Windows, I've filed the request with our Product team.

+1'ing this.
This feature has been available on macOS for quite a while. I get security posturing, but this really needs to be in Windows and Linux sooner rather than later.
I don't like using stock Firefox, I feel that there are a lot of missing features. I'm trying to leave behind all chromium forks. Currently, Zen is looking to be a winner.
This feature has been promised for a long time; it's a little frustrating that 1Password is one of the more expensive password manager products out there, while managing to fail to deliver this feature.
It's making me think twice about my family renewal, there are a lot of players out there that do this for the same price.

We don't have a public timeline and we tend to keep things pretty close to the chest so that we avoid disappointing folks if certain features are delayed or cancelled. This specific feature is yet to be built for Windows; the team hopes to bring additional trusted browsers to other platforms in the future.

Any update on a timeline when this will be available. I thought I might be the only one when I started this discussion, but it looks to be an extremely popular feature request.
