> Want cross-platform? Use your 1Password passkey.

1Password is dead to me the second I can use a passkey everywhere. I’m already removing them from my life.

At any rate it’s not needed. If I have an apple passkey and am on PC (or a work mac) I can just scan with my iphone or ipad.




Can you share more about how [1Password syncs keys] is bad but [Apple syncs keys] is good? I use both and am sincerely interested.


Because 1Password started charging a subscription for the exact same features they were charging a flat fee for. And when customers that had bought 1Passwords product year after year every year started to complain, they just ignore them. Then to attempt to force people to upgrade, they stated they would stop updating old versions of the app so at some point you’ll have to pay to continue accessing your passwords.

Are you really unaware if the password vault highjacking 1Password is and has been trying to do for 5+ years now?

Fair enough! I'm also subscription-avoidant generally, but 1Password's yearly $60 family plan works for me. Thanks!


Yea for sure, it works for some and not for others. I’m likely biased from the subscription fatigue so take what I say with ample salt.

Sharing passwords between families is definitely a problem for me still, like sharing 401k accounts with my wife. Hopefully passkeys and the respective family accounts with the majors can solve this eventually.
