3 years agoWhen will 1Password 8 for Mac be available on the Mac App Store?
Hi 1P,
I have always used 1P 7 from the Mac App Store. It was easy up update when updates were available. Currently 1P 8 is only available via website so no clear way of knowing when updates are available. When will 1P 8 for Mac be available on Mac App Store?
1Password Version: 1p8
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: current

Downloaded the app to my phone - as suggested in 1P 7 when I opened it today. Was surprised that the sign-in did not go smoothly, as in previous upgrades, which led me to this site, the conversation upon which makes me very wary to upgrade. Loss of trust due to lack of transparency could (and should) be disastrous for a company all about security. Will not upgrade for the moment. Will start looking at alternatives.

It's not even that I will not, although for sure - I will not. I simply can't, on work laptop at least. But I also find this whole ordeal suspicious, so I am not going to upgrade on my private machine either.
I am not going to ask our internal corporate security team to examine 1P8 for allow-list, if it's too fishy for App Store to host it. They are typically allowing non-App Store stuff to be installed only if it's crucial for business. And 1Password is not, for me to be able to use it on corp machine it needs to come from App Store.

Agree. Need to have it on App Store or I will not upgrade

What is the reason 1Password 8 is not allowed in the Mac App Store?
I came here just to bump up this question. As paying users, we should know what the heck is going on.

Can I use 1PW8 on my iPhone and 1PW7 on my Mac? I updated to 8 on my iPhone before I found out 8 is not available on the Mac App Store. Would prefer to use one source (Apple Stores) for keeping up to date, but if I can run 8 from their website on my Mac and 8 on my iPhone from the App Store, then all good.

Will the Mac App Store version be retired or become incompatible?
I’m happy to install the website version on my machine, but I don’t intend to move 4 family members off the Mac App Store version. It’s just easier for me to manage and support their machines.
Thank you.

What is the reason 1Password 8 is not allowed in the Mac App Store? There must be something Apple doesn't like. There is always the fear it has something to do with security.
AgileBits if you want us to continue using 1Password, tell us why. - Former Member
And I completely expect they will delete my messages again also

Months later and still no response. That is all the response I need.
So I canceled my family subscription to move to an alternative that is cheaper and has a native Apple Silicon app. - Former Member
