1Password 8 for Mac now available with new interface and improved Watchtower

Popular password manager platform 1Password last year announced that it was working on a major update for the Mac version of its app. Today, 1Password 8 is now being rolled out to macOS users with multiple enhancements and new features, including a redesigned interface and improved Watchtower.

The company says that the new version of 1Password helps users to ensure that their passwords are secure while also helping them to find and access login details faster and easier.

Featuring a sleeker and more intuitive design, the next generation of 1Password for Mac helps users manage and protect their most sensitive information. Users can get more done at work and at home with enhanced functionality, such as speed and security, and a better user experience.

One of the most notable changes in 1Password 8 is the interface, which has now been redesigned with a more modern look and feel consistent with the design language introduced with macOS 11. The iconography has also been revamped so that users can identify items at a glance, in addition to the app’s sidebar and search.

Among the new features, Quick Access makes the process of logging into websites using 1Password much more intuitive, even when the app is not open. Autofill works now with macOS apps, and can even be used as a prompt from the system.

With the new Watchtower, 1Password users will have access to a detailed graph showing the status of their saved passwords. This dashboard will display all passwords and warn users about compromised sites. Developers can now create and manage workflows using SSH.

Current 1Password subscribers can upgrade to version 8 for free. If you’re a new user subscription plans start at $2. 99 per month. More details about 1Password 8 for Mac can be found on the app’s website.
