I’ve been trying iCloud Passwords over 1Password for about a year, but even with the new Passwords app it’s not (yet) quite what what I need. I’m headed back to 1Password for the time being.
@jarrod What’s it’s missing for you? I’m still on 1Password so I can share other sensitive information with my wife like bank accounts. AFAIK Notes doesn’t let you collaborate on encrypted notes.
@jarrod I really like the new Passwords app but yeah; I'm sticking with 1Password for now too. Mostly because I need it to be cross platform
@samwarnick The secure notes and non-login items are the biggest omission, but I also prefer the keyboard shortcuts for logins on macOS, having a login’s password history, and more other little stuff. I think Apple Passwords is great for most people, but I’ve built up too much muscle memory and history with 1P to switch to something less capable right now. Maybe someday!
@grubz Cross-platform isn’t really on my needs list, and I, too, like the Apple Passwords app overall. 1Password just has such a lead on it, feature-wise. As long as it continues to advance, I think I could switch someday.
@jarrod (BTW, importing your passwords into 1Password from Apple Passwords will not offer any smarts about merging duplicates. You just end up with double all your passwords. Ask me how I know. 😝)
@jarrod I think after my Surface dies in a year or two, I switch to a MacBook and I no longer need cross platform lol
@jarrod I'm resolutely doing the opposite. One password / passkey / secret note at a time. The latter will go in Apple Notes under locked down individual notes. 🤷🏻
@jarrod Same. iCloud Passwords is great for storing passwords. In contrast, 1Password is a fully-featured security management app. And it manages so much of my life that I cannot imagine parting from it.
