Generating passwords has less manual control than LastPass, plus 1Password uses an intrusive pop-up you have to clear when it’s prompting you to remember credentials. If you’re shifting from another password manager, you’ll want to export your credentials data and import it into 1Password, which is straightforward enough. You still need to enter your master password on new devices, despite the QR code only being accessible from your account (which automatically signs out after 10 minutes of no activity). It’s easiest to start from the hub on the 1Password website, which has direct download links for the supported platforms and a QR code for a mostly straightforward sign-in. We received ours as a downloadable PDF, which creates a chicken-and-egg problem of where to securely store it in the event that you’re locked out of 1Password (uploading it to 1Password would negate access).įor our tests across Chrome extension, Windows software, and Android app, we liked how straightforward installation was and how 1Password holds your hand. What’s a little confronting the first time you sign in is that 1Password asks for a username, password, and a Secret Key, the latter of which isn’t recoverable. Still, there are apps for Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android to choose from, which covers most of the important platforms. 1Password does have a Chrome extension, but not one for Firefox, Edge, or Opera (unlike LastPass). Unlike LastPass, 1Password has decent Windows software, which you’ll either appreciate or find redundant if you’re used to using Google Password Manager or another browser extension. Out of the gate, we appreciate that 1Password has software and apps for several platforms.
