I’ll use my bookmarks in the browser to go to the site, then Command-\ to fill the username and password. In the browser, I use the extension directly-but even then, I don’t use the “Open and Fill” button there. I use the app only to manage my entries and access the ones that don’t get used in the browser (such as in-app logins and license codes). I’ll admit that I have never used “Open and Fill” in the app (either the full app or the menu bar app) to choose links to visit, so that’s something that didn’t occur to me to test. It’s only a matter of time and v7 will pass into the mists as 1Password moves forward with v8. If you can’t upgrade to 1Password 8 because your Mac has an older version of macOS, you can keep using the browser extension for Safari that’s included with 1Password 7 for Mac.”ĭoesn’t this say we can continue using v7 with the browser extension that we’ve been using all along? Clearly, as browsers are updated in the future the v7 extension will become increasingly obsolete, but it seems to say it will continue working at least for the time being. "If you use Safari and 1Password 7 for Mac, upgrade to 1Password 8 and get 1Password for Safari. “On July 10, 2023, the 1Password classic extension for Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Brave will no longer be supported.” ’stop working’ and ’no longer be supported’ are not the same things to me. The headline says the extension will stop working, but the article says it will no longer be supported for some browsers (Chromium based?) without mentioning Safari. Sooner or later, yes, I’ll have to make a choice but I think I can squeeze some more time out of the status quo yet. Yes, it’s a pain to manually fill in username and password but I used to do this manually with 1Password for years before using the extension, and that ol’ muscle memory still let’s me do it via the keyboard fairly easily. That said, I can’t say that this is (yet) a death-knell for me using 1Password7.
