    Hey, thanks! We can't be the tool for everyone and we're always the first to recognize bugs exist. Unfortunately we also aren't able to fix them all just like I'm sure most people …

    Hi, I work for AgileBits, makers of 1Password. I can't comment on the defensive part, but text can often be harder to parse in conversation so perhaps it was that? I generally find…

    Sorry to say I don't think any words I'm going to say will help here. You'll just have to keep an eye on what we do I guess. I've said elsewhere but we won't pretend to be the sing…

    Thanks for your feedback! Unfortunately, the iOS side is difficult. We've done the best we can there given the limitations and our imagination at this time. It's possible we drum u…

    You are correct, you'd need to provide the key to each device. To sign in on a new device you need: 1. Your email 2. Master Password 3. Secret Key 4. The URL for the server your da…

    > Will you add support for the newer 2FA options anytime soon? We've added Yubikey support for the web client and for 1Password for iOS. We don't comment on future plans because th…

    You're certainly welcome to prevent that. We document every domain 1Password contacts here: https://support.1password.com/ports-domains/ You can map things up pretty good here. How…

    To be clear, we haven't dropped anything. We still sell licenses. We still provide local vaults, in fact you can use them via a license (that we still sell) AND you can use them wi…

    We still sell licenses, it's not super easy to find but it's there. Open the app on a new machine, on the welcome screen of options there's a "Create A New Local Vault" option, whi…

    Thanks for the feedback. We've been doing a lot of user testing recently, so I'll run this by the team that do those tests. Really appreciate you taking the time to provide feedbac…

    I think this is probably the better way to look at it. We seen a lot more "I can't access my data anymore" emails before we had our own service. Those seem to have dropped a lot, a…

    You can still make backups on all platforms. So it would be a matter of restoring a backup. Typically someone with local vaults also syncs (to either iCloud or Dropbox) so in theor…

    Hi Nathan! Thanks for the kind words. I'll make sure to pass this along to our team. It's always great when we hear positives. Sometimes the negatives can overwhelm the positive in…

    Sorry for the trouble. We had a greater need for the 1Password.com support in the Windows client. So when we started our rewrite efforts it focused on that. In general, we'd agree …

    We can talk all day about bugs and mistakes. They're a fact of life and we are human. It's also important to remember that your Master Password still plays a role and YOU provide t…

    Hey thanks! I guess I've never had reason to use Markdown here until now and just discovered that after years of posting here. Kyle

    It is NOT emailed to you. It is generated locally as I indicated, and as outlined in our white paper. Where some users get confused, and perhaps rightfully, is that when you sign i…

    I think you may want to take a closer look at how 1Password works. I'll give a quick rundown here, but our security white paper goes into much greater detail: https://1pw.ca/whitep…

    Thanks for the feedback. I won't pretend that we're the password manager for everyone. If we're not the right one for you then hopefully one of the dozens of others out there fit t…
