355 TopicsBeta Release: New MSIX Installer for 1Password for Windows
Hello 1Password Community! We are excited to announce the beta launch of the MSIX installer for 1Password for Windows. The MSIX installer combines the benefits of our existing EXE and MSI installers, meaning that you no longer need to compromise between features that are exclusive to the EXE or MSI. Like MSI installations, MSIX installs to a directory that requires admin privileges to modify, providing additional tamper-proofing measures. In addition to this, MSIX offers an improved ability to detect other common forms of tampering, notifying the user and giving them the option to repair or reset the install. EXE MSI MSIX Protected install* ❌ ✅ ✅ Improved tamper detection ❌ ❌ ✅ ARM64 support ✅ ❌ ✅ In-app updates ✅ ✅ ✅ Access to Beta and Nightly channels ✅ ✅ ✅ *Protected install refers to installing in a directory requiring admin privileges to modify, providing additional tamper-proofing measures against threats such as local malware. Accessing the Beta: We’d love for you to try out the MSIX beta and provide feedback about your experience. To try out the beta, first make sure that you are running Windows 10 20H1 or later. Then, download the installer by clicking on this link and install 1Password. Additional Notes: When will the MSIX be officially released? We are looking to officially launch MSIX in late-June of this year, both as a direct download from our website and via the Microsoft Store. Do I need to uninstall 1Password before installing the MSIX version? It’s recommended but not required. Once the MSIX is installed, you’ll no longer be able to open other versions of 1Password and will be prompted to uninstall old versions, if opened. Can I use the MSIX beta long-term? Yes! Over the course of the beta, you’ll be locked to the beta channel, but once the MSIX is officially released, you will be able to switch to Stable and Nightly channels upon updating. Where can I learn more about MSIX? Check out this Microsoft article on MSIX to learn more. Where can I ask questions and/or provide feedback about the MSIX installer? Feel free to ask your questions and/or provide feedback directly in this thread.Solved13KViews4likes37Comments1Password Access after Death, Legacy Contacts
I am not planning to die anytime soon, but sometimes things happen. Beyond securing my 1Password details in an Escrow account, or with a lawyer, or in a bank lockbox, does 1Password offer any means of allowing one or more designated member of the 1Password Families account to access the 1Password account in case of the primary owner's passing? Apple now offers the ability to add one or more https://support.apple.com/en-us/102631 so that in case of your untimely demise, an Access Key and a Death Certificate allows Apple to grant the holder of both of these to get a new Apple ID that has access to your Apple ID Account. It may be something 1Password wants to consider, though I realize that reviewing Death Certificates may not be on the high list of priorities for the team! 1Password Version: Not Provided Extension Version: Not Provided OS Version: Not Provided Browser: Not Provided11KViews34likes126CommentsExperiment #3 - Nearby Items
Hi y'all! I can't believe we are already shipping Experiment 3?! This one has a very special place in my heart. This project actually came out of a Hackday we did internally. Everyone was SOOOO excited about it, we wanted to share it with our users to get your feedback. Nearby Items allows you to assign a location to an item. Then, on mobile only for now, we've added a section to the home tab that shows you items that are close to you physically. Pretty awesome, right? The basic hypothesis here is that because people are more and more mobile, the items you need quick access to might be different based on where you are in the world. If your building at work has a door code, we'll show you that when you pull up. If you've got a storage shed, we'll show you the combo to the lock when you arrive. This experiment is our first exploration into physical space. We know we're not "done" but wanted to get early feedback to help shape how this project evolves from here. We're eager to hear your thoughts on Nearby Items. Let us know what you think below in this thread. The primary questions I'm trying to answer are: Does adding a location to an item help you get things done faster and with less friction? Do you see value in continuing to explore physical locations for items in any form? What are the use cases where you think having an item's physical location would be valuable? We have some ideas, but I'm sure there are tons of things we aren't even thinking about. This is a v1. If we continue to work on Nearby Items, what should we add, change, or modify to make it more valuable to you as a user? Does it make sense to also show "nearby items" on Desktop computers? Do you think that the current form of Nearby Items is good enough to ship in the Stable product?10KViews7likes88CommentsCan someone explain the difference between:

I received an email stating that I'll need to upgrade to 1Password 8 by May 1st. I came here to register my disappointment not because I'm surprised, or that I think anything will come of it, but because saying something feels better than upgrading silently. 1Password 8 on the Mac is such a frustrating app to use. I recognize it's been iterated on since initial release, but most of the fundamental issues are still there. I'll upgrade because I'm forced to. I hope for a majorly improved v9. I used to happily pay for 1Password for myself and my extended family, now I do it resentfully while keeping a lookout for alternatives. The functionality is great. I just wish I didn't have to access it through such a mediocre Mac app.Solved1.7KViews0likes9CommentsExperiment #7 - Anti-Peek Mode
Hello 1Password Community! At 1Password, we are constantly looking for new and innovative ways to help you use 1Password with confidence - even when you are out in the world and uncertain of how secure your surroundings are. This is why we’ve introduced Anti-Peek Mode, a new 1Password Labs feature for our Android and iOS applications that provides additional protection from unwanted shoulder surfing when using 1Password in unsecured, public environments. How does it work? When you enable Anti-Peek Mode in the 1Password app on your Android or iOS device, the following protections are applied making it harder for those around you to peek at your data: Items on the Home screen are blurred and require a long press to reveal Usernames, in addition to passwords, are also concealed by default on item detail screens and must be revealed to see Usernames are no longer displayed as subtitles for items on the Home or Search screens Quick actions when tapping on an item field are disabled and any actions (such as Reveal) must be invoked via the item’s overflow menu Recent search results are hidden. The “Always show passwords and full credit card numbers” option is disabled. Screenshots and screen recording are disabled (Android only) How to try Anti-Peek Mode To try out Anti-Peek mode, first, make sure that you are on the latest version of 1Password (8.10.62) on your iOS or Android device. Then, go to Settings > Labs > Anti-Peek Mode and simply enable the feature. We would love to hear what you think of Anti-Peek Mode as we work to make this feature even better! Once you’ve had a chance to try it out, make sure to share your feedback via this survey or by simply posting a comment below. 📣This feature will only be available in Labs until May 31, 2025 so try it out today!1.7KViews3likes17CommentsList of Special Characters supported by 1password (OS Independent)?
Do you know the list of Special Characters supported by 1password and the min and max number of those characters used in a password? Note: This question is not OS specific! 1Password Version: 8.9.8 Extension Version: Not Provided OS Version: Not Provided Browser:_ Not Provided806Views0likes6CommentsFeature Request - Send me a password securely
I had a look for this feature request and couldnt see it... I would like the ability for people that dont have 1password to share passwords securely with me. Perhaps I could send them a link to an empty 1Password item which they can then update, hit save and I get the password securely in my vault. Links expire within x days, and can only be saved once. Once its saved, the link expires immediately and the person who updated it cannot access it.Solved718Views4likes12CommentsPasskeys in a compromised account
In today's (2/26) Wall Street Journal is an article about someone whose 1Password account was hacked via Github malware with the hacker gaining access to the poor guy's vault(s). He did not have 2FA enabled for his 1Password account. (Not sure about the secret key in this scenario?) (Article titled: "A Disney Worker Downloaded An AI Tool. It Led To A Hack That Ruined His Life." In his 1Password account were credentials that included 2FA one-time codes. There are some (me) who believe having a 2FA code in 1Password along with the username and password is a bad idea as if a compromise occurs, all the bits to get into an account are right there. So I use an authenticator app for critical accounts. Simple enough, second factor is someplace else, so bad guys need to do more work to get into an account. But it got me thinking about passkeys. I've done forum searches and other digging on this question, and I'm still not quite sure on the answer. And that is, if, as in the above scenario, my 1Password account is compromised and a hacker gains access to my vaults with my credentials via a browser, do the passkeys stored in 1Password enable access to those accounts? Or is there something about the passkey security model that prevents access in this scenario? At this point I'm thinking the answer is yes as the private key is stored in 1Password - that's why the passkey works on all my devices. That said, the question remains. I look forward to reading the answer.Solved700Views0likes7Comments
