When will 1Password 8 for Mac be available on the Mac App Store?

Guys,
The problem with this is that my wife, my kids, my parents, eg everyone other than myself in my family that uses it, won't update. When it's through the mac app store the updates are applied to their computers automatically, but if they have to click on a banner, forget it. I've seen my wife completely ignore the update/restart button on chrome for upwards of a week.
So this "will prompt you with a small banner [...] to finish the process" solution isn't helpful. Completely automatic updates through the mac app store are.

Clearly the fact that you have a mailing list on this topic indicates there's user interest.

Dave could have just said that rather than the non answer given. Thanks wavesound for following up.

Please don't pick on Dave. He's a nice guy, who gave the best answer he had. 🙂

So what is the best way of keeping track of when there are updates for 1P8 now?

The app automatically updates and will prompt you with a small banner at the bottom of the main window when the app needs to restart to finish the process.

We don't know for sure. We're not saying "no," but it also isn't something we are actively planning. We'll push out any updates on this subject to this mailing list: https://1password.com/mac-app-store-subscribe/

Hello @MichaelCorleone! 👋

1Password 8 for Mac isn't currently available in the Mac App Store. Instead, you can download the app directly through our website:

• https://1password.com/downloads

If your subscription is through Apple, you can still download the app directly from our website, and your subscription will carry over. There's no need to change your billing information. Our new built-in updater will keep you running the latest version of 1Password silently and automatically.

Please let me know if you run into any issues with installing 1Password 8 from our website and I'll be happy to help further. 😊

Not anytime soon (if ever). The official response is that AB is focusing on providing the app directly from the 1Password website. There’s a rather long forum thread here: https://1password.community/discussion/128419/version-8-in-the-apple-app-store/p1 all about 1P8’s lack of Mac App Store availability.
