The version for Apple Mac devices offers some new changes to simplify security. For the past few years, 1Password has been one of the most reliable password managers in the market.
If you are an Apple Mac user, here are the changes in 1Password 8.7.0 that you can benefit from.
1Password 8 Mac Major Updates Make Security Simpler!
According to Beta News' latest report, the new 1Password 8 Mac version offers consistency in the whole Mac ecosystem. The changes can be used across desktop apps, such as the Safari browser plug-in.
A customer types on a MacBook laptop at an Apple Store following an announcement that Apple has become the world's most valuable brand on May 9, 2011 in San Francisco, California. In a report released by London based Millward Brown, Apple Inc. has surpassed Google to claim the top spot in a global ranking of brand value this year.
However, there are some Apple users who are not satisfied with the password manager's enhancements since the upgrades don't follow the native Mac design for apps.
When it comes to the actual changes, the new Universal Autofill is the main highlight of the 1Password 8 Mac version, as reported by BGR.
It allows users to easily access their passwords using the shortcut "⌘ + \." Using this, Mac owners can easily fill any app or 2FA boxes.
Aside from the new Universal Autofill update, here are other enhancements you can take advantage of:
- UI changes, such as a new vibrant sidebar and unified toolbar.
- A new iconography and typography design also arrived.
- The so-called Knox feature aligns the new 1Password 8 to the overall MacOS experience.
