We introduced support for time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) way back in the dark ages of 2015.

Back in March, we shared our plan to develop a privacy-preserving telemetry system that will help us build an even better 1Password. The goal was simple: to better understand how people are using 1Password, where they’re getting stuck, and which updates we should be focusing on first.

We’re proud to announce that 1Password has been selected as one of 30 companies in the prestigious Enterprise Tech 30 list for 2023.

We’re always captivated by WWDC, Apple’s annual developer conference, and the announcements shared during its keynotes and various breakout sessions. This year’s conference was particularly exciting because Apple unveiled a new passkey API that will be implemented in iOS 17. The API will enable password managers like 1Password to create and use passkeys inside any native app that has added passkey support, including Safari.

Last year, we joined the FIDO Alliance and committed to building safer, simpler, and faster login solutions for everyone. Today, we’re taking a major step forward and announcing that passkey support has started to arrive in 1Password. Using the public beta versions of 1Password in the browser, you can now save and sign in to online accounts with passkeys.

The term ‘passwordless’ is easy to wrap your head around (no passwords!) but is often used as an umbrella term that includes passkeys and magic links sent via email or text message.

Toward the end of last year, Passage joined 1Password to bring passwordless authentication to everyone. Now, we’re ready to introduce you to Passage by 1Password: the fastest and most secure way for developers and businesses to add passkey support to their products.

Artificial intelligence (AI) made a larger-than-usual splash recently when word broke of an AI-powered password cracker. I have a bit of AI fatigue, but these stories immediately grabbed my attention — they had me at “passwords.”

Students can now get a free year of 1Password with the GitHub Student Developer Pack to jump-start their careers in software development.

Earlier today, Google announced that you can now create and use a passkey to secure your personal Google account. This support is an important step toward the widespread adoption of a simpler, more secure alternative to passwords.
