1password 6 Safari

We’ve discovered there’s lots to love about Safari 13, but we’ve also learned that it will no longer work for customers using 1Password 6.

I am disappointed by this news. My family and I have used 1Password for several years. I’ve always paid to upgrade. The upgrade price, a separate purchase for iOS and macOS, was more than the typical app but for the utility that 1Password provided for my family, the pricing seemed fair.

1Password provides apps for macOS, Windows, Linux, Android, and iOS, plus browser extensions for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari. All of these include a password generator to create strong.
If you’re using Safari and still don’t see the 1Password icon in form fields, Control- or right-click the web page and choose “Show 1Password on this page”. If you’re having trouble saving and filling logins on a specific website. If 1Password is working well on other sites.

This way, you’ll be prompted by 1Password—not Safari—to save your passwords on sites. Frankly, I find 1Password to be a little fussy to use on Safari (perhaps that’s just me). 1Password 6 Adding and Using LDAP Credentials for Mac; 1Password 6 Syncing for Mac; Web Browser Extensions. 1Password extensions provide access to all your 1Password data directly from your web browsers. These extensions allow you to launch your favorite site and apps, like Gmail and Commons, and automatically sign you in with a single click. 1Password + Yubico. 1Password is offering Yubico customers six (6) months free on a 1Password Families account. The promotion is valid only for new customers, and is active for a limited time. Go to 1Password's site to learn more. Go to 1Password to learn more.

But I don’t see much value in a 1Password subscription. The subscription price is significantly higher than the previous upgrade cost, doesn’t provide additional features that I want, and I am not convinced that I would see significant improvement in the software over the subscription time frame, one year.

However, now I won’t be able to use the software at all in my favourite browser. I have very few good choices. I could switch to another password manager, but the switching cost, time spent migrating all my account information, is high.

I could switch to another browser and keep using 1Password 6, but Google Chrome is anathema to me, and Firefox lacks integration with the operating system.

AgileBits is offering a discount for current 1Password 6 users. I will reluctantly upgrade to 1Password 7 for families and hope they have a better track record of updates and upgrades as Adobe does with their Creative Cloud.
