December 2025 at 1Password: More browser options, easier sign-in, and safer saving and filling

Welcome to your monthly roundup of what’s new in the world of 1Password!

Additional browsers now supported in 1Password for Windows

1Password now supports additional browsers on Windows including Zen, Opera, Waterfox, and Floorp. This much-requested update lets you save and autofill vault items without leaving your preferred browser.

Now in beta: New sign-in experience in 1Password browser extension

If you have an  Individual or Families membership, you can choose to try a new feature in the beta and nightly version of the 1Password browser extension. This new sign-in experience combines all the sign-in methods – passwords, passkeys (coming soon), social logins, OIDC & SAML – into a single, simple interface focused on getting you where you want to go.

To activate this in the beta or nightly version of the 1Password browser extension, go to Settings -> Autofill & save and switch on Sign in with Universal Sign On. Let us know what you think!

New policies available to administrators for auto-save and auto-submit

If you’re a 1Password Enterprise Password Manager administrator, you now have more granular control over filling and saving behavior:

  • Autosave: Choose which item types 1Password can offer to save (credit cards, identities, logins, OTPs, passkeys, social logins, etc.).
  • Autosubmit: Control whether 1Password can automatically submit forms after filling or if you want users to do that step themselves.

Now in beta: Improved email options for account recovery 

We’re  rolling out new account recovery options in beta for 1Password Enterprise Password Manager administrators . If you aren’t seeing this option yet, hang tight – you will soon.

Administrators can choose to route recovery emails to specific users to get faster follow-ups and reduce email volume – or even send them to your internal IT ticketing tool. We hope this makes account recovery a simpler, faster process for everyone and would love to hear your feedback on it. 

The complete first season of the Chasing Entropy podcast available

It’s a wrap on the first season of our new show, the Chasing Entropy podcast! This season Dave Lewis, 1Password Global Advisory CISO, sat down with dozens of CISOs and security leaders to discuss how security works in their organizations and what keeps them up at night. All episodes are available now wherever you listen to podcasts.

Release note highlights 

Browser Extension
  • We’ve added a new setting to manage whether 1Password.com automatically unlocks when your 1Password browser extension is unlocked. You can find the setting in the browser extension under Settings > Security > “Sign in to 1Password in the browser automatically”.
Mac, Windows, and Linux
  • Fixed a bug so Large Type no longer disappears when the display zoom is set above 100%.
  • [Mac only]: We’ve expanded the additional browsers you can connect to the 1Password app to include browsers that use more complex background processes, such as SigmaOS and Atlas.
  • [Windows only]: We’ve fixed an issue that caused the 1Password app to become unresponsive for 30 seconds after you turned on passkey support.
  • [Linux only]: You no longer need to authenticate approval prompts on Wayland when 1Password is already unlocked.
  • [Linux only]: We’ve fixed an issue that prevented the authorization prompt from appearing on Wayland.
iOS, and Android
  • We’ve moved the location of the “Unlock with device” setting under the “Unlock” heading in Settings > Security.

We’ll resume our monthly highlights in January, 2026. We hope you have a wonderful end to 2025, and we’ll see you in the new year!

    Unfortunately, the Biometric Login not working seems to be a never ending story. With Honor Magic6 pro/MogicOS 9.0/Android15 I'm constantly required to tap my (quite complex and long) password what is very annoying. Also reinstalling the app didn't change the issue. If that can't be made to work, it's a deal-breaker for me.

    Unfortunately, Universal Sign On seems to be bugged out. The toast never clears out, even if it was used to sign in.

      Hi kop48​,

      Sorry for the slow response due to the holidays. Could you share details about your OS, 1Password versions, and browser version so I can see if this is a known bug or if I should file a new one? Sorry for the trouble!

        It's not reproing on either my Mac nor my Windows machines, so I'm not sure now! Does it require the Beta extensions to enable?
