“1Password 8 for Mac: An upgrade, after all”

Jason Snell, at Six Colors:

My judgment is: It’s a good app. In redesigning 1Password, AgileBits has made it feel lighter and more modern. It feels more like a modern Mac app than the old version did.

I was one of the people who thought that making 1Password a Catalyst app was a bad idea, but they appear to have pulled it off. I agree with the article that the “Quick Access” functionality introduced in 1Password 8 is nice, as is its integration with macOS’s Accessibility.

Overall, I’d say that 1Password 8 is a good Mac app, even though it’s not what we have traditionally considered a native one.
