You're not paranoid. Those of us that work in cyber security know that "nothing is unhackable. It's just a matter of how much time and effort someone wants to use before moving on to a weaker (many of those) target.
I hope this 1Password review was a useful introduction to the program. I'm curious - do you already use a password manager app? Why or why not? Leave a comment here to let me know. 🔹 Try 1Password free for 30 days: www.allthingssecured.com/yt/1password-review 🔹 IMPORTANT: If you use a password manager, watch this: th-cam.com/video/boj9q26gadE/w-d-xo.html
1. I have used 1Password for about 10 years now and think it is by far the best of all managers, because of their competent, clean design, great security practices, great stability, and great team of people. 2. You can buy permanent non-subscription versions. But it is a bit convoluted. You must download the version from their website (mac or windows). Do NOT get the Mac App Store or Windows Store or any other store versions. Next, launch the downloaded version and it will have a link in the GUI underneath the prompt telling you to get a trial/account, there's a link saying something like "looking for a permanent license? we have those too". But the deal with the permanent versions is that you only get updates for that particular major version, so the next major version won't be included. And while I think they do discounts, it's still clear that the price of a major version and then the upgrades etc kinda ends up being in the same ballpark as a 1Password account. And having an account lets you sync the encrypted database to their servers so that you get robust backups, item histories/rollback ability going back through up to a year of past edits or deletions, etc. So in the end I broke down and bought a family subscription. It's worth it. 3. I did look into self-hosting BitWarden on my own VPS, and it's kinda easy to keep up with security updates (you just setup a daily or weekly cronjob that updates the docker disk). But ehhh, the BitWarden GUI is absolutely disgusting. It lacks so many important features from 1Password and it feels gross to use. 😉
Thanks for the review. I'm not sure that I would see as negative the omission of a free version. Nothing is free in this world, and I would be concerned that a company would not treat a free version and a paid for version in the same light.
Long-time 1Password user here. There are several reasons I won't use anything else. First is they have never been hacked. (As you point out, nothing is hack-proof, but unlike other managers, 1Password has never been hacked.) But I don't bother with the double-blind passwords you mention because I use a YubiKey hardware 2FA method. A hardware key is critical for me keeping my stuff secure. I just hope more websites and services start adopting the YubiKey and Google Titan hardware keys because they do up the security level significantly. Secondly, its Watchtower system is really useful stating on top of passwords that have been compromised, and websites too. I keep my secure notes that would be hard to keep as safe anywhere else other than in my head, which is a hopeless forgetting machine. I keep all my software licenses and everything else that I would be keeping my notes apps otherwise and they are in no way secure by any stretch of the imagination. (I encrypt my boot drive, so that's secure. All in. all, I've tried the reset, and they aren't even close.
Thanks for a different perspective! All very good points and I agree with the 2FA keys - they are by far my favorite method of securing any account you have.
Boom, at 3:25...honesty. This is how our trust is earned by a youtuber (Sorry, ATS, didn't mean any offense by 'youtuber', just making a point). I can't stand when our time is wasted by finding out the person we've 'trusted' doesn't deserve our...trust.
Hi, please consider making a video explaining the best way to set up vaults (and what sorts of sites/apps go where) for a family: private, shared, travel? Thanks
Hey Josh i dont know if you will ever see this but im wondering if the privacy policy is something you ever worry about or consider a security risk since 1password is part of the five eyes alliance and 1password collects alot of info about you because of that
Excellent review and thanks for the knowledge. I'm a guy that writes down my passwords on a piece of paper period as soon as I get home I'm checking out your options
If you are on a business account and leave the job, can you change the account to family and still have access to everything*? If you do choose to end the subscription, are you able to update passwords on accounts since you need the old password to create a new one? (I imagine I would never be able to remember the autogenerated passwords and the point is to not write them down anywhere.) *Obviously not the work related passwords if you have left the job, but personal stuff that might have been included. I had posted this originally as a reply to another question but thought it might be best "stand alone".
Whether you leave your business account or you terminate your personal subscription, you don’t lose your password vault at all. All that happens is that you can no longer add more passwords or sync them between devices, nor do you get the Watchtower feature. You can continue to use this static vault or you can export it to use in another program you decide to use. I hope that helps!
Once upon a time I used to reuse old passwords and not use 2 factor authentication. I had a domain name on my GoDaddy account worth 5 figures almost fall victim to a very targetted Russian cyberattack where they were going as far as trying to spoof my phone number through my phone carrier. Switched to 1Password, now everything has randomly generated secure passwords + 2FA on everything. It's worth the tiny fee to get a good manager like 1Password. What I recommend for staying secure: 1Password, Protonmail + ProtonVPN, Malwarebytes, common sense. The #1 thing I like about 1Password is actually the fact that it does use the 1Password servers because I can go out and buy a new iPad, install the app, and I have access to my vault in 5 minutes even if it's a new device.
As I’ve been reading one additional feature it may be good for 1pass to add is allowing users to change their password iterations to varying levels, especially as Theres recommendations from OWASP I believe of 300k+ password iterations for a hash *if I remember right* I’ve read a lot of others recommend bitwarden because of this but I’m unsure on open source of that program. I feel better paying for a program in this case and adjusting password length to be higher in characters. Thanks for your insight on this.
Thanks for the very informative video. Quick question, you say the second layer of protection is a Device Security Key and it must be present in combination with your Master Password to open your vault and use passwords. If that is the case does that mean you cannot access your passwords from a unique device? i.e. one that has not previously been register and one which you will only use once?
Great video! I just signed up for 1password but I am REALLY confused on how to use it. Is there a way to transfer all my passwords from my devices to 1 password? I have a Mac(reg computer) and mostly use my iPad or iPhone. Is there a video(current) showing the very basic on how to use 1password from the very beginning(setup) to transferring your passwords from my devices to 1password. Do I need to use my Mac to do this or can I do this using my iPhone/iPad? How do I use 1password to store a new password for a brand new web account that I just made? I am SO confused on how to use this! Apple as you know has their own PW generator how do I make 1password become the password generator and saves it to my devices? If there are videos on how to use this I would greatly appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction. Thank you very much!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I don't have a video showing the whole setup process, but the process isn't really device-specific as much as it is based on where you currently store your passwords. If it's in your internet browser (like Chrome), then you'll just have to go in and export the passwords and then import them into 1Password. It's easier to do this on your Mac and then 1Password will sync everything to your iPhone/iPad. To make 1Password your default, just go into your phone/pad settings and search for "Password". There will be an option to make 1Password your default (if you've installed the app).
Using 1Password as a non-IT homemaker was challenging. In fact, I deleted it. Setting up existing websites on my PC and Android was frustrating. It took me hours to set up 3, yes, 3 accounts (I won't get into the details because I don't know the IT jargon to explain). The app did not work on my Android. I tried the suggested fixes from the 1Password forums but had trouble. It is not user-friendly for the average person, except if you're an IT person or IT comes natural to some. 👎
Excellent advice. Thank you. I would like to use 1Password Family plan. I want to use it on my Android phone and Windows corporate laptop. My wife will use it on iPhone and Mac. I can install 1Password app and browser extension on my phone, but I cannot install them on my corporate laptop due to my company restrictions. Thus I have the following questions: 1) Will I be still able to use 1Password on my corporate laptop? 2) Will I be able to automatically sync the corporate laptop with my phone and other devices (my wife's)? 3) What will be the main drawbacks using 1Password on my corporate laptop without app and extension?
Hey Marcin, that an interesting problem. The first thing I would say is that it might be worth approaching your company’s IT department and asking them to allow you to install 1Password. That would obviously be the easiest. If that’s not an option, you can still use the web app version of 1Password (accessed via a browser), but it’s not nearly as convenient. That will stay in sync with your wife and other devices. So I’d say the main drawback is convenience. It should still work, though. Does that answer your question?
@@AllThingsSecured Yes, thank you very much indeed. Unfortunatelly, installing the app and/or extension on my corporate laptop is not an option (I have already received a no). However, I will try to use 1Password anyway. You have been very convincing. The features like shared voults or using a separate dedicated credit card for each entreprise seems amazing. However, the latter might not be possible, as you said in one of your videos, that Privacy is available only in USA, whily I live in Europe :(.
Hey! I'm watching this video for the third time. I'm still undecided wether or not to purchase 1password or not. Around min 4:20 you say that you don't store credit cards on 1p. May I ask why?
I've actually changed my tune on that a bit. I currently use virtual cards through 1Password (th-cam.com/video/pJ-ZsfONByw/w-d-xo.html). Simply put, I start with limited trust in any company/software I use. As time goes on and I get to know them better, I'm more willing to trust them. That's the case with 1Password. I really like the company and the software now more than I did when I first published this review.
Josh, Thanks for another great video. I was able to import my data from my last password manager. However, I am not sure if I should keep my old password manager as a backup or simply delete that account. If I delete the account will all my passwords and secure notes be deleted or would I just lose access to that data? In that case, would you suggest deleting each item before closing my old account?
hi, thanks for the video. Great info! I have one question: what happens if for example I am on holiday and I am using a friend's computer and I want to access certain websites but I don't know the passwords because it has been generated by 1Password in the first place? Many thanks.
You can access your vault from a web browser or, if that sounds too risky, you can just have the app installed on your phone and use it to get the password (you'll have to look at it and type it in manually, though).
You don’t say what version you are using is that 7 or 8. Both are considerably better than Apple Key Chain that I’ve used since 2008 Apple OSX Snow Leopard. Keychain on a iMac or MacBook had better options than what iCloud, iPhone or iPad Keychain. The only option being letters, numbers and dashes. 1Password did recently come out with a subscription which it seems made long time users a bit bitter. If you don’t need a router with the ability to customize every little setting like me check out the Eero 6 Pro Mesh router and get Secure Plus which cost a small yearly amount. The secure plus plan comes with a free subscription to 1Password along with 4 other features.
Great question. There are a number of differences. First, Apple doesn't offer you a password generator to help you create stronger passwords. Keychain just stores the passwords you already have. It also doesn't give you any help regarding the health of your password profile. The biggest difference in my opinion, though, is that Apple's Keychain only works on Apple devices. A password manager like 1Password or Dashlane can work cross-platform so that you're not stuck only using the Apple devices.
Apple keychain is not reliable! In addition to the comments already written about Apple keychain here, Apple keychain 1…only works with some apps 2...often has duplicate or triplicate (or even more than 3)entries on the keychain list for the same app/website, when you’re only need ONE password for each. Therefore I don’t use it much, except for those apps for which it does work. I record the rest of my passwords elsewhere.
Loved your review. I want to use this among just family members only. I don't mind paying for the subscription. Let's say pricing is not an issue. In this context, ... would you suggest 1 password over Last pass? Please advise.
Thanks for the video ! Where I am a bit confused is : isn't the app suppose to create the passwords for you ? If so, I don't understand the "watchtower" utility and how can a password be weak or reused if generated by the app? Thx !
1Password will create unique passwords when you create or update your account, but it will also offer to save passwords as you log into your existing accounts. So Watchtower checks those old passwords to make sure they aren’t compromised, weak, or reused.
Hi, thanks for a great video. I have a question to which the answer might be obvious. Are team members able to actually see and therefore copy any passwords that is stored in company vaults. In other words, can team members share passwords with people that don't have access to the vault?
Hi Nicole, this is a great question. With the enterprise version of 1Password (which isn't shown in this review), you do have the ability to manage permissions with individual employees. In other words, you can control whether they can see/edit or just use the password. Likewise, for those who do have permissions, 1Password gives you an audit trail so you can see who changed what with any passwords and logins. Make sense?
Thanks for the Great content and the equally Great presentation. 2 questions. Is a family plan necessary if it's only my wife and myself and we trust each other and are not too invested in social media? Can the 1Password software be stored locally with each device having the same local key? Trying to have my cake and eat it to. Try to avoid the cloud when I can but still want security for each device? Thank You.
Thanks for the great, in depth review. Unnecessary info, but I fell asleep to this video twice. Is there an easier way to change your old passwords with 1password or do you have to manually change all of them? Also, in the chance that I don’t like the app, is it possible to copy all the passwords on the app to chrome or apple passwords?
So let me get this straight, you're going to insult the video and then ask for help? That's pretty bold 😂 No matter which password manager you use, you have to manually change your old password. There is no automated way to do (at least not one that's secure). Also, 1Password - and any manager for that matter - can export to a .csv file anytime you want.
@@AllThingsSecured It wasn’t meant to be an insult! There’s a construction next to me working 24/7 and I can barely sleep. This video actually helped me sleep, which is a good thing for me.
Found your channel recently and have already switched to proton mail. At the moment I store my passwords on my iphone/Mac with keychain but have considered something more secure. Do you have a video explaining why a password app is better?
You should check out this recent video I did (th-cam.com/video/G8nYLYXdYDQ/w-d-xo.html). In it, I discuss how I like using specific applications for specific uses. In other words, I want a dedicated password manager. Honestly, though, Keychain isn't a bad option for most people, so don't feel like you need to make the switch if you're already using it.
I have the old 1Password and I’m looking at upgrading to 7. My hesitation is that the new version evidently stores all of your passwords on their website? I see how you mentioned the option in “Advanced” to select using your vault on your Mac. Is this option also available on the iOS versions? What would be the benefit of storing all your passwords on their server?
Question for you. What if you have a pin to use with some of your accounts? The pins are all different. Does that store on the app too and how would you do that?
I've never personally had this situation, but you do have a "notes" space within each saved login where I assume you could keep this pin. It wouldn't be automatically filled in, but you could look it up through the app if you wanted. Would that work, you think?
How is customer support? I submitted a question (how to decide which level fits my needs best) but have not gotten a response after about a week. This makes me a bit nervous tbh.
@@AllThingsSecured ok. I like the feature of Apple Keychain that required ur biometric to fill already saved password. was curious if 1password did the same, because if you share ur laptop with family then anybody can login to ur profile even if it is logged out as password is filled automatically.
If I have the app on my iPhone and iPad can I log out of of the app in my iPhone and log in the app from iPad and see all my passwords on there? Can I log out of the app from iPhone; then, log out of Apple ID, create a whole new apple ID RE DOWNLOAD The 1PASSWORD APP and still see all my passwords? I'm curious. Does it work like your Gmail? Like when you sign out Gmail from one device; sign in from another and still can see all your inbox emails?
New to the password manager idea. (And quite late, I'll admit). As someone who is just becoming acquainted with how PW managers work, this video was informative, to the point, and answered questions I wouldn't have known to ask. Thx!
Doesn't 2FA devices like YubiKey accomplish the same thing as a Double Blind Password if 2FA Keys are supported? If not supported I guess this would be another option to consider.
@@AllThingsSecured Thanks! I started using the double blind passwords immediately where I couldn't use my Yubi Key. Not sure why ALL Websites don't support YubiKey. It's a NO BRAINER and seems it would help them to PROTECT THEIR Customers. I just don't get it.
Am I correct in understanding that if I go to access my one password app from my sister's desktop, for instance, it will not work because the device key will not be there? I always have to use a device the 1Password is aware of belonging to me or a family member? And, how many devices can have this device key? For a family of 5, it could be 15 devices, more as they move into the workforce. Thanks, I know I need to move to this, and your video was succinct and packed with answers.
Thanks for the kind words, Cheryl. If you're using 2-factor authentication for login (and I recommend you do), then you'll have to verify your account with 2FA on every device you log into. Once you do that, though, you'll be able to use the device. With paid plans, there is no limit to the number of devices, I would just be careful whose device you access from. Make sense?
It's very easy to export your passwords. You can still use the 1Password software, but you can't sync between devices, add more logins, etc. So you'll have to use the export file to use with another password manager or your browser.
Does it offer the ability to diaable autofill login/password info? For instance, just use specifically as for password storing for multiple family members and sharing?
is there a way to link or load existing pw for log ins into 1password? or do i physically need to log in into these websites with the 1pw browser extention so that it gets saved in the vault?
You can import passports from your browser, a spreadsheet file or even Apple Keychain. So no, you don't have to log into each account separately to get this to work.
@@AllThingsSecured Thank you so much! Also I noticed that there arent a lot of videos explaining how to use drop box to sync Macs with PCs. The ones that Ive seen are like more than 2 years old. Would they still be applicable?
No, I still lock the extension with my biometrics or master password. It automatically locks up after a certain period of time in order to protect against this exact concern.
@@AllThingsSecured , Thanks for your response. But , if 1password extension is installed then it autofill the item for 1password that is created autmatically when you install the software, so even if the computer is locked and chrome is locked, in the scenario that someone had access to the computer password , then as soon as he opens chrome , the 1password extension autofill the 1password signing in and he has all the information. Please help me , i know that i am missing something... Thanks
@@alexherrera3918 1password will not fill in the master password. you have to enter the master password before 1password will autofill website passwords.
How do I shut off the auto fill option in my laptop . I like putting in the password I created for 1Password to get into my email or bank account. I don’t want it to auto fill without putting in my 1Password . I have other people using my laptop and I don’t want them to click on the 1Password icon and automatically get into my email account for example. I set 1Password up in extension in Chrome. I turned off auto fill in settings in Chrome . It is pointless to me having this app if it doesn’t give me the option to shut off auto fill.
uh? I didnt get that part about the Double-Blind Password and the URL that you are pointing to just simply show other videos to choose from but not sure which one to pick on that other video... mind adding the URL in the description of your this video?
I was wondering if 1 password allows me the end user to see my own passwords? I am asking because of my streaming services. Unless there’s an app that I can use on my TV, I need to be able to manually enter the password on my TV. Therefore I need to be able to look into my 1 password vault to see what the password is. In addition could you provide a link to the video that you mentioned for the double blind password? Thanks, this was very helpful.
Yes, you can see your own passwords after you log in with your master password. No problem. As for the other video, just search “double blind password” in TH-cam and it will be the first to show up.
@@AllThingsSecured Thanks so much. Your videos have been a huge help. I posted the following question on the double blind password video, but it keeps disappearing. I hope it stays visible here: I’m a big fan of the double blind password idea. I do however have one concern. Does using the double blind password prevent 1Password or any other password manager from detecting if your password has been compromised? I’m not sure how password managers detect a hacked password, but if they don’t know what the password is, how can they detect that password has been compromised? Thanks P.S. Are you still using 1Password? One of your videos indicated that you might be using a different password manager like dashlane.
@@AllThingsSecured Thank you. I hope you realize that you’re providing a very valuable service to people. There are a ton of terrible crimes that people commit. I find hacking to be particularly heinous,. It’s distressing that there’s not nearly the amount of policing that’s necessary to stop these crimes. In many ways it’s worse than being really robbed.
Excellent video! Really helpful. Installed 1Password a week ago and been fine tuning it and accessing all the websites I frequent (100+ LOL) and changing the passwords from weak to strong ones. BUT, always worry about not being able to access all these new strong passwords for whatever reason, so is there a way to export all my "items" / logins to a CSV or excel-type file that I can put onto my backup drive that I keep in my actual vault along with the printout of my 1Password Emergency Kit? Thanks.
Yes, it is entirely possible to export all this data. Just remember that the export file is not secured, so you'll want to keep it in a very safe place.
They remain in the app, but they are no longer synced to the cloud and among your devices. So you don't lose it, but once your subscription ends its only good on the devices where you're using it. You'll also lose access to all the additional features (Watchtower, etc.).
If you are on a business account and leave the job, can you change the account to family and still have access to everything? If you do choose to end the subscription, are you able to update passwords on accounts since you need the old password to create a new one? (I imagine I would never be able to remember the autogenerated passwords and the point is to not write them down anywhere.)
I have googled and can't seem to find the answer so here goes. 3 of us currently are still using the OLD free version of 1Password. I would to upgrade to the family share but need to know if everyone can import or switch over their own accounts to the NEW FAMILY one once that is set up and they are invited? Hope that makes sense. Thank you in advance for any information
Hey Tracy, I'm almost certain that you can make the switch, although I would advise that every member of you family export their private vault as a backup just in case something goes wrong.
I am considering googles titan key. I was told 1password requires additional software to us 2-form factor even if using the key. Please give me your thoughts.
Hi Jesus, perhaps the information you received was old? As of right now, 1Password gives you the option to enable 2-factor authentication using an Authenticator App or a 2FA key. I use the key and it doesn't require additional software.
Ive been thinking about getting 1password for a while, what i don't get or this may be a downfall of these passwords managers. i sign into my emails sometimes on my work PC where i wont have the software and i don't have my phone on me, how do i sign in to my email then. Or what about say Netflix and i need to sign in on a smart TV, will i need the app and show the password to sign in?
Great questions. That does present a problem, but not an insurmountable one. For those accounts that you know you’ll need to access on a device that won’t have access to your password manager, I recommend creating a strong password that you can remember without the manager app. You can still store it in the manager vault, but for those few accounts that you need to access on your work computer or TV, make sure those are passwords you can remember. Make sense?
Since the backbone of Brave is the same as Chrome, you can use the 1Password Chrome extension on Brave, no problem. As for Apple, I subscribe to the "division of software" model where no one service/company provides all of my security features.
He assumes others are fluent in the terms he uses, and is a bit too fast in explanation to shorten the video. So many people have short attention spans, or as well, like me, a bit un familiar with some of the issues and terms. I will need to watch again to absorb the details. I would love to see a video on how to use the 1 pass that is more intended to instruct than to review the product. So, I ask can I use this product, not does he think it's good?
That's useful feedback, Greg. Maybe I can try to do a "how I use 1Password" video as well. To be fair, this video is labeled as a "review" and that was my intention all along.
Josh, Yea I did know it was a review, but I wanted a how to, so I was kinda asking for that. I later was trying to change my passwords because I saw a breach status saying 3 days ago I was dark breached. My page stopped letting me change them after 5 or 6 were changed. I tried to contact 1 Pass but no reply. So, I was left last night thinking I was at risk.... Possibly I screwed up the 1 Pass settings, don't know, as I said I'm a bit lost on the site. I'm 65, was not born with a joy stick in my hand.
They use the FIDO U2F protocol. For a more detailed explanation, see this thread: www.reddit.com/r/1Password/comments/epbp2t/does_1password_make_use_of_fido2_resident_keys/
Just a personal preference thing. I don't mind typing in my credit card info and it's one less place where it gets stored. I don't think it's unsafe or anything.
You're not paranoid. Those of us that work in cyber security know that "nothing is unhackable. It's just a matter of how much time and effort someone wants to use before moving on to a weaker (many of those) target.
So true, Robert. Thanks for the comment!
No password is 100% secure. There's always bucket of water/terrycloth towel decryption.
I hope this 1Password review was a useful introduction to the program. I'm curious - do you already use a password manager app? Why or why not? Leave a comment here to let me know.
🔹 Try 1Password free for 30 days: www.allthingssecured.com/yt/1password-review
🔹 IMPORTANT: If you use a password manager, watch this: th-cam.com/video/boj9q26gadE/w-d-xo.html
1. I have used 1Password for about 10 years now and think it is by far the best of all managers, because of their competent, clean design, great security practices, great stability, and great team of people.
2. You can buy permanent non-subscription versions. But it is a bit convoluted. You must download the version from their website (mac or windows). Do NOT get the Mac App Store or Windows Store or any other store versions. Next, launch the downloaded version and it will have a link in the GUI underneath the prompt telling you to get a trial/account, there's a link saying something like "looking for a permanent license? we have those too".
But the deal with the permanent versions is that you only get updates for that particular major version, so the next major version won't be included. And while I think they do discounts, it's still clear that the price of a major version and then the upgrades etc kinda ends up being in the same ballpark as a 1Password account. And having an account lets you sync the encrypted database to their servers so that you get robust backups, item histories/rollback ability going back through up to a year of past edits or deletions, etc. So in the end I broke down and bought a family subscription. It's worth it.
3. I did look into self-hosting BitWarden on my own VPS, and it's kinda easy to keep up with security updates (you just setup a daily or weekly cronjob that updates the docker disk). But ehhh, the BitWarden GUI is absolutely disgusting. It lacks so many important features from 1Password and it feels gross to use. 😉
Second video I've watched by you. Man, you get right on with the material. Easy to understand (layman's terms), no gimmicky stuff. Thank you!
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks for the review.
I'm not sure that I would see as negative the omission of a free version.
Nothing is free in this world, and I would be concerned that a company would not treat a free version and a paid for version in the same light.
That makes sense.
Just leaving this comment to let you know that I enjoyed the quality review.
Thank you, Max!
Nice, well spoken, informative breakdown. Looking into switching from LastPass to 1Password, and this swayed me!
Glad it was helpful!
All Things Secured Just switched last night by the way and absolutely loving it. Very well thought out service all around.
Long-time 1Password user here. There are several reasons I won't use anything else. First is they have never been hacked. (As you point out, nothing is hack-proof, but unlike other managers, 1Password has never been hacked.) But I don't bother with the double-blind passwords you mention because I use a YubiKey hardware 2FA method. A hardware key is critical for me keeping my stuff secure. I just hope more websites and services start adopting the YubiKey and Google Titan hardware keys because they do up the security level significantly.
Secondly, its Watchtower system is really useful stating on top of passwords that have been compromised, and websites too. I keep my secure notes that would be hard to keep as safe anywhere else other than in my head, which is a hopeless forgetting machine. I keep all my software licenses and everything else that I would be keeping my notes apps otherwise and they are in no way secure by any stretch of the imagination. (I encrypt my boot drive, so that's secure.
All in. all, I've tried the reset, and they aren't even close.
Thanks for a different perspective! All very good points and I agree with the 2FA keys - they are by far my favorite method of securing any account you have.
Boom, at 3:25...honesty. This is how our trust is earned by a youtuber (Sorry, ATS, didn't mean any offense by 'youtuber', just making a point). I can't stand when our time is wasted by finding out the person we've 'trusted' doesn't deserve our...trust.
Thanks so much, Ron. I appreciate that.
Hi, please consider making a video explaining the best way to set up vaults (and what sorts of sites/apps go where) for a family: private, shared, travel? Thanks
Thanks for the suggestion, Kip!
Hey Josh i dont know if you will ever see this but im wondering if the privacy policy is something you ever worry about or consider a security risk since 1password is part of the five eyes alliance and 1password collects alot of info about you because of that
Excellent review and thanks for the knowledge. I'm a guy that writes down my passwords on a piece of paper period as soon as I get home I'm checking out your options
Glad it was helpful!
If you are on a business account and leave the job, can you change the account to family and still have access to everything*? If you do choose to end the subscription, are you able to update passwords on accounts since you need the old password to create a new one? (I imagine I would never be able to remember the autogenerated passwords and the point is to not write them down anywhere.) *Obviously not the work related passwords if you have left the job, but personal stuff that might have been included.
I had posted this originally as a reply to another question but thought it might be best "stand alone".
Whether you leave your business account or you terminate your personal subscription, you don’t lose your password vault at all. All that happens is that you can no longer add more passwords or sync them between devices, nor do you get the Watchtower feature.
You can continue to use this static vault or you can export it to use in another program you decide to use. I hope that helps!
Once upon a time I used to reuse old passwords and not use 2 factor authentication.
I had a domain name on my GoDaddy account worth 5 figures almost fall victim to a very targetted Russian cyberattack where they were going as far as trying to spoof my phone number through my phone carrier. Switched to 1Password, now everything has randomly generated secure passwords + 2FA on everything. It's worth the tiny fee to get a good manager like 1Password.
What I recommend for staying secure: 1Password, Protonmail + ProtonVPN, Malwarebytes, common sense.
The #1 thing I like about 1Password is actually the fact that it does use the 1Password servers because I can go out and buy a new iPad, install the app, and I have access to my vault in 5 minutes even if it's a new device.
Any particular reason you don't put credit cards into your 1Password?
Terrific review and great information! Thanks!
As I’ve been reading one additional feature it may be good for 1pass to add is allowing users to change their password iterations to varying levels, especially as Theres recommendations from OWASP I believe of 300k+ password iterations for a hash *if I remember right*
I’ve read a lot of others recommend bitwarden because of this but I’m unsure on open source of that program. I feel better paying for a program in this case and adjusting password length to be higher in characters.
Thanks for your insight on this.
Thank you for the thoughtful tutorial! This is the BEST video straight to the point.
Thanks, Holly.
I appreciate your commitment to replying to comments!
I hope the answers are helpful!
@@AllThingsSecured Indeed it really was. Love your videos, have a great day!
Clearly spoken, easy to understand explanations.
Thanks for the very informative video. Quick question, you say the second layer of protection is a Device Security Key and it must be present in combination with your Master Password to open your vault and use passwords. If that is the case does that mean you cannot access your passwords from a unique device? i.e. one that has not previously been register and one which you will only use once?
I have the same question
I am the person who writes all of the passwords in a notebook and carrying it everywhere. :)
I must give it a try. 👍
Great review of this app; thanks for thorough outline of pros and cons!
Thanks so much, Jeffrey! It's encouraging to know it was useful for you.
Great video! I just signed up for 1password but I am REALLY confused on how to use it. Is there a way to transfer all my passwords from my devices to 1 password? I have a Mac(reg computer) and mostly use my iPad or iPhone. Is there a video(current) showing the very basic on how to use 1password from the very beginning(setup) to transferring your passwords from my devices to 1password. Do I need to use my Mac to do this or can I do this using my iPhone/iPad? How do I use 1password to store a new password for a brand new web account that I just made? I am SO confused on how to use this! Apple as you know has their own PW generator how do I make 1password become the password generator and saves it to my devices? If there are videos on how to use this I would greatly appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction. Thank you very much!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I don't have a video showing the whole setup process, but the process isn't really device-specific as much as it is based on where you currently store your passwords. If it's in your internet browser (like Chrome), then you'll just have to go in and export the passwords and then import them into 1Password. It's easier to do this on your Mac and then 1Password will sync everything to your iPhone/iPad.
To make 1Password your default, just go into your phone/pad settings and search for "Password". There will be an option to make 1Password your default (if you've installed the app).
You deserve a special award for all those things!
I appreciate it.
Using 1Password as a non-IT homemaker was challenging. In fact, I deleted it. Setting up existing websites on my PC and Android was frustrating. It took me hours to set up 3, yes, 3 accounts (I won't get into the details because I don't know the IT jargon to explain). The app did not work on my Android. I tried the suggested fixes from the 1Password forums but had trouble. It is not user-friendly for the average person, except if you're an IT person or IT comes natural to some. 👎
Excellent advice. Thank you.
I would like to use 1Password Family plan. I want to use it on my Android phone and Windows corporate laptop. My wife will use it on iPhone and Mac. I can install 1Password app and browser extension on my phone, but I cannot install them on my corporate laptop due to my company restrictions. Thus I have the following questions:
1) Will I be still able to use 1Password on my corporate laptop?
2) Will I be able to automatically sync the corporate laptop with my phone and other devices (my wife's)?
3) What will be the main drawbacks using 1Password on my corporate laptop without app and extension?
Hey Marcin, that an interesting problem. The first thing I would say is that it might be worth approaching your company’s IT department and asking them to allow you to install 1Password. That would obviously be the easiest.
If that’s not an option, you can still use the web app version of 1Password (accessed via a browser), but it’s not nearly as convenient. That will stay in sync with your wife and other devices.
So I’d say the main drawback is convenience. It should still work, though. Does that answer your question?
@@AllThingsSecured Yes, thank you very much indeed. Unfortunatelly, installing the app and/or extension on my corporate laptop is not an option (I have already received a no). However, I will try to use 1Password anyway. You have been very convincing. The features like shared voults or using a separate dedicated credit card for each entreprise seems amazing. However, the latter might not be possible, as you said in one of your videos, that Privacy is available only in USA, whily I live in Europe :(.
The false smile right at the end did it for me.
I appreciate the feedback. There are always ways to improve and it's amazing that we have people like you who can help point those out :)
Hey! I'm watching this video for the third time. I'm still undecided wether or not to purchase 1password or not. Around min 4:20 you say that you don't store credit cards on 1p. May I ask why?
I've actually changed my tune on that a bit. I currently use virtual cards through 1Password (th-cam.com/video/pJ-ZsfONByw/w-d-xo.html). Simply put, I start with limited trust in any company/software I use. As time goes on and I get to know them better, I'm more willing to trust them. That's the case with 1Password. I really like the company and the software now more than I did when I first published this review.
Josh, Thanks for another great video. I was able to import my data from my last password manager. However, I am not sure if I should keep my old password manager as a backup or simply delete that account. If I delete the account will all my passwords and secure notes be deleted or would I just lose access to that data? In that case, would you suggest deleting each item before closing my old account?
hi, thanks for the video. Great info! I have one question: what happens if for example I am on holiday and I am using a friend's computer and I want to access certain websites but I don't know the passwords because it has been generated by 1Password in the first place? Many thanks.
You can access your vault from a web browser or, if that sounds too risky, you can just have the app installed on your phone and use it to get the password (you'll have to look at it and type it in manually, though).
@@AllThingsSecured great, thanks!
You don’t say what version you are using is that 7 or 8. Both are considerably better than Apple Key Chain that I’ve used since 2008 Apple OSX Snow Leopard. Keychain on a iMac or MacBook had better options than what iCloud, iPhone or iPad Keychain. The only option being letters, numbers and dashes. 1Password did recently come out with a subscription which it seems made long time users a bit bitter. If you don’t need a router with the ability to customize every little setting like me check out the Eero 6 Pro Mesh router and get Secure Plus which cost a small yearly amount. The secure plus plan comes with a free subscription to 1Password along with 4 other features.
Many thanks for ur great content! I have a question though, what’s the difference between this paid password manager and Apple free password saver?
Great question. There are a number of differences. First, Apple doesn't offer you a password generator to help you create stronger passwords. Keychain just stores the passwords you already have. It also doesn't give you any help regarding the health of your password profile.
The biggest difference in my opinion, though, is that Apple's Keychain only works on Apple devices. A password manager like 1Password or Dashlane can work cross-platform so that you're not stuck only using the Apple devices.
All Things Secured very helpful. Thanks again!
@@AllThingsSecured I think my Apple/Keychain DOES suggest stronger passwords?
Apple keychain is not reliable! In addition to the comments already written about Apple keychain here, Apple keychain
1…only works with some apps
2...often has duplicate or triplicate (or even more than 3)entries on the keychain list for the same app/website, when you’re only need ONE password for each.
Therefore I don’t use it much, except for those apps for which it does work. I record the rest of my passwords elsewhere.
Loved your review. I want to use this among just family members only. I don't mind paying for the subscription. Let's say pricing is not an issue. In this context, ... would you suggest 1 password over Last pass? Please advise.
Personally, I prefer 1Password and the way they do their family plan. I'm sure they're both good, but I say go with 1Password.
Thanks for the video ! Where I am a bit confused is : isn't the app suppose to create the passwords for you ? If so, I don't understand the "watchtower" utility and how can a password be weak or reused if generated by the app? Thx !
1Password will create unique passwords when you create or update your account, but it will also offer to save passwords as you log into your existing accounts. So Watchtower checks those old passwords to make sure they aren’t compromised, weak, or reused.
Hi, thanks for a great video. I have a question to which the answer might be obvious. Are team members able to actually see and therefore copy any passwords that is stored in company vaults. In other words, can team members share passwords with people that don't have access to the vault?
Hi Nicole, this is a great question. With the enterprise version of 1Password (which isn't shown in this review), you do have the ability to manage permissions with individual employees. In other words, you can control whether they can see/edit or just use the password. Likewise, for those who do have permissions, 1Password gives you an audit trail so you can see who changed what with any passwords and logins. Make sense?
Thanks for the quality content brother 🤙
My pleasure, Eric. Thanks!
Thanks for the Great content and the equally Great presentation. 2 questions. Is a family plan necessary if it's only my wife and myself and we trust each other and are not too invested in social media? Can the 1Password software be stored locally with each device having the same local key? Trying to have my cake and eat it to. Try to avoid the cloud when I can but still want security for each device? Thank You.
Thanks for the great, in depth review. Unnecessary info, but I fell asleep to this video twice.
Is there an easier way to change your old passwords with 1password or do you have to manually change all of them?
Also, in the chance that I don’t like the app, is it possible to copy all the passwords on the app to chrome or apple passwords?
So let me get this straight, you're going to insult the video and then ask for help? That's pretty bold 😂
No matter which password manager you use, you have to manually change your old password. There is no automated way to do (at least not one that's secure). Also, 1Password - and any manager for that matter - can export to a .csv file anytime you want.
@@AllThingsSecured It wasn’t meant to be an insult! There’s a construction next to me working 24/7 and I can barely sleep. This video actually helped me sleep, which is a good thing for me.
A very succinct review which is very informative. Thank you.
My pleasure, Vicki. Thanks for the comment!
Found your channel recently and have already switched to proton mail. At the moment I store my passwords on my iphone/Mac with keychain but have considered something more secure. Do you have a video explaining why a password app is better?
You should check out this recent video I did (th-cam.com/video/G8nYLYXdYDQ/w-d-xo.html). In it, I discuss how I like using specific applications for specific uses. In other words, I want a dedicated password manager. Honestly, though, Keychain isn't a bad option for most people, so don't feel like you need to make the switch if you're already using it.
So should I use it or there's best?
This is what I use, if that’s what you’re asking. I like it.
Subscription is the future of all software. Ownership is dead.
You're right, to be sure, but I don't always like it :)
Please do a review of Minimalist Password. Is it a good 1Password alternative?
Nice video review, just getting started on your channel and this was a great start. Thank you...
Awesome, thanks Sean!
I have the old 1Password and I’m looking at upgrading to 7. My hesitation is that the new version evidently stores all of your passwords on their website? I see how you mentioned the option in “Advanced” to select using your vault on your Mac. Is this option also available on the iOS versions? What would be the benefit of storing all your passwords on their server?
The benefit is being able to sync across all your devices from anywhere. It’s a pretty secure option, but I understand if you hesitate to do it.
Great video! Thanks for sharing it! :)
Thanks for watching!
Would you rather create fresh accounts or use Sign in with Google whenever possible?
Personally, I never use "sign in with Google/Facebook/Apple".
Question for you. What if you have a pin to use with some of your accounts? The pins are all different. Does that store on the app too and how would you do that?
I've never personally had this situation, but you do have a "notes" space within each saved login where I assume you could keep this pin. It wouldn't be automatically filled in, but you could look it up through the app if you wanted. Would that work, you think?
@@AllThingsSecured ok that's kind of what I was thinking. Just wanted to see if there was a way to save those too. Thank you!
How is customer support? I submitted a question (how to decide which level fits my needs best) but have not gotten a response after about a week. This makes me a bit nervous tbh.
My experience has been very good, but one week is ridiculous. You should reach out again on either their Facebook or Twitter accounts.
Very helpful. You mentioned 'deep passwords' How does that work?
Hmm...I don't recall referencing "deep passwords" at all. Are you referring to the "dark web"? Or something else maybe?
informative review. Thanks
Glad it was useful, James!
Does it require touch id to fill a password like apple keychain?
It doesn't *require* touch ID, but you can make use of biometric logins if you want.
@@AllThingsSecured ok. I like the feature of Apple Keychain that required ur biometric to fill already saved password. was curious if 1password did the same, because if you share ur laptop with family then anybody can login to ur profile even if it is logged out as password is filled automatically.
Then yes, you can require biometric verification through 1Password for each login if you want it to. Most password managers allow this.
great review
Thanks, Gabriel. Glad you enjoyed it!
If I have the app on my iPhone and iPad can I log out of of the app in my iPhone and log in the app from iPad and see all my passwords on there? Can I log out of the app from iPhone; then, log out of Apple ID, create a whole new apple ID RE DOWNLOAD The 1PASSWORD APP and still see all my passwords? I'm curious. Does it work like your Gmail? Like when you sign out Gmail from one device; sign in from another and still can see all your inbox emails?
New to the password manager idea. (And quite late, I'll admit). As someone who is just becoming acquainted with how PW managers work, this video was informative, to the point, and answered questions I wouldn't have known to ask. Thx!
Doesn't 2FA devices like YubiKey accomplish the same thing as a Double Blind Password if 2FA Keys are supported? If not supported I guess this would be another option to consider.
Exactly right. And in most cases, banks don't support 2FA keys, so this would be a place where I use a double-blind password a lot.
@@AllThingsSecured Thanks! I started using the double blind passwords immediately where I couldn't use my Yubi Key. Not sure why ALL Websites don't support YubiKey. It's a NO BRAINER and seems it would help them to PROTECT THEIR Customers. I just don't get it.
Am I correct in understanding that if I go to access my one password app from my sister's desktop, for instance, it will not work because the device key will not be there? I always have to use a device the 1Password is aware of belonging to me or a family member? And, how many devices can have this device key? For a family of 5, it could be 15 devices, more as they move into the workforce. Thanks, I know I need to move to this, and your video was succinct and packed with answers.
Thanks for the kind words, Cheryl. If you're using 2-factor authentication for login (and I recommend you do), then you'll have to verify your account with 2FA on every device you log into. Once you do that, though, you'll be able to use the device. With paid plans, there is no limit to the number of devices, I would just be careful whose device you access from. Make sense?
Consumer Reports 2020 Gave this #1 Password Manager
And I think for good reason, Walter! I think the Mac Reviews magazine did the same.
What about BitWarden password manager? No review?
I've used it and talked about it in other videos. It's not my favorite, though.
Thanks for information!
How about startup and ‘importing’ existing passwords from an IOS and Chrome password manager?
Have you stopped paying for the app ? Whats happends if you do?
It's very easy to export your passwords. You can still use the 1Password software, but you can't sync between devices, add more logins, etc. So you'll have to use the export file to use with another password manager or your browser.
I wouldn't use it if its for free. If its free YOU are the product.
Agreed. But you do realize that 1Password isn't free, right?
@@AllThingsSecured Yes and thats a good thing. ;-)
What happens if I lose my device? It’s replacement doesn’t have the Device Security Key so how do I get set up again?
Good review sir!
Thank you kindly!
Does it offer the ability to diaable autofill login/password info? For instance, just use specifically as for password storing for multiple family members and sharing?
*disable autofill
Yes, you can disable the autofill feature if you'd like.
@@AllThingsSecured thanks! Will give this a try
is there a way to link or load existing pw for log ins into 1password? or do i physically need to log in into these websites with the 1pw browser extention so that it gets saved in the vault?
You can import passports from your browser, a spreadsheet file or even Apple Keychain. So no, you don't have to log into each account separately to get this to work.
@@AllThingsSecured Thank you so much! Also I noticed that there arent a lot of videos explaining how to use drop box to sync Macs with PCs. The ones that Ive seen are like more than 2 years old. Would they still be applicable?
For the extension, if somebody has access to you computer password and opens your browser then it has access to all the passwords on 1password?
No, I still lock the extension with my biometrics or master password. It automatically locks up after a certain period of time in order to protect against this exact concern.
@@AllThingsSecured , Thanks for your response. But , if 1password extension is installed then it autofill the item for 1password that is created autmatically when you install the software, so even if the computer is locked and chrome is locked, in the scenario that someone had access to the computer password , then as soon as he opens chrome , the 1password extension autofill the 1password signing in and he has all the information.
Please help me , i know that i am missing something...
Thanks
@@alexherrera3918 1password will not fill in the master password. you have to enter the master password before 1password will autofill website passwords.
How do I shut off the auto fill option in my laptop . I like putting in the password I created for 1Password to get into my email or bank account. I don’t want it to auto fill without putting in my 1Password . I have other people using my laptop and I don’t want them to click on the 1Password icon and automatically get into my email account for example. I set 1Password up in extension in Chrome. I turned off auto fill in settings in Chrome . It is pointless to me having this app if it doesn’t give me the option to shut off auto fill.
Thanks very much ❤❤❤
I have a Mac and I've turned on encryption, If I use 1 password will there be any unforeseen consequences?
If I want to cancel subscription to 1 password can I do that?
Yes, it is very easy to cancel a subscription and then export all your passwords into whatever manager you choose next.
Insightful. Thank you.
You're very welcome, Tyler!
uh? I didnt get that part about the Double-Blind Password and the URL that you are pointing to just simply show other videos to choose from but not sure which one to pick on that other video... mind adding the URL in the description of your this video?
Here's the Double-Blind password hack video: th-cam.com/video/boj9q26gadE/w-d-xo.html
If I share a password, can the person see the password or is there a way to allow the use of the password only with 1Password?
I was wondering if 1 password allows me the end user to see my own passwords? I am asking because of my streaming services. Unless there’s an app that I can use on my TV, I need to be able to manually enter the password on my TV. Therefore I need to be able to look into my 1 password vault to see what the password is.
In addition could you provide a link to the video that you mentioned for the double blind password?
Thanks, this was very helpful.
Yes, you can see your own passwords after you log in with your master password. No problem.
As for the other video, just search “double blind password” in TH-cam and it will be the first to show up.
@@AllThingsSecured Thanks so much. Your videos have been a huge help.
I posted the following question on the double blind password video, but it keeps disappearing. I hope it stays visible here:
I’m a big fan of the double blind password idea. I do however have one concern. Does using the double blind password prevent 1Password or any other password manager from detecting if your password has been compromised?
I’m not sure how password managers detect a hacked password, but if they don’t know what the password is, how can they detect that password has been compromised?
Thanks
P.S. Are you still using 1Password? One of your videos indicated that you might be using a different password manager like dashlane.
Yes, I still use 1Password and yes, this double blind method probably does render the compromise detection useless.
@@AllThingsSecured Thank you.
I hope you realize that you’re providing a very valuable service to people. There are a ton of terrible crimes that people commit. I find hacking to be particularly heinous,. It’s distressing that there’s not nearly the amount of policing that’s necessary to stop these crimes. In many ways it’s worse than being really robbed.
Thank you!
You’re welcome, Corinne!
Excellent video! Really helpful. Installed 1Password a week ago and been fine tuning it and accessing all the websites I frequent (100+ LOL) and changing the passwords from weak to strong ones. BUT, always worry about not being able to access all these new strong passwords for whatever reason, so is there a way to export all my "items" / logins to a CSV or excel-type file that I can put onto my backup drive that I keep in my actual vault along with the printout of my 1Password Emergency Kit? Thanks.
Yes, it is entirely possible to export all this data. Just remember that the export file is not secured, so you'll want to keep it in a very safe place.
Yes of course you can, you have to open 1Password7 and choose preferences in Mac and it will have an export CSV file like @AllThingsSecured mentioned.
Thanks! Good info! But one question, if you discontinue your subscription with 1password, what will happen to your stored passwords in that app?
They remain in the app, but they are no longer synced to the cloud and among your devices. So you don't lose it, but once your subscription ends its only good on the devices where you're using it. You'll also lose access to all the additional features (Watchtower, etc.).
If you are on a business account and leave the job, can you change the account to family and still have access to everything? If you do choose to end the subscription, are you able to update passwords on accounts since you need the old password to create a new one? (I imagine I would never be able to remember the autogenerated passwords and the point is to not write them down anywhere.)
Obviously not the work related passwords if you have left the job, but personal stuff that might have been included.
ok do I need a master password? well I never was asked to set one up! how do I get a master password?
Yes, you need a master password. You can't start using 1Password without first setting up a master password.
@@AllThingsSecured ty got help now.
I have googled and can't seem to find the answer so here goes. 3 of us currently are still using the OLD free version of 1Password. I would to upgrade to the family share but need to know if everyone can import or switch over their own accounts to the NEW FAMILY one once that is set up and they are invited? Hope that makes sense. Thank you in advance for any information
Hey Tracy, I'm almost certain that you can make the switch, although I would advise that every member of you family export their private vault as a backup just in case something goes wrong.
Thankyou the new site is looking good
Thanks so much!
well done!!!
very very helpful thank u
My pleasure, Michelle!
I am considering googles titan key. I was told 1password requires additional software to us 2-form factor even if using the key. Please give me your thoughts.
Hi Jesus, perhaps the information you received was old? As of right now, 1Password gives you the option to enable 2-factor authentication using an Authenticator App or a 2FA key. I use the key and it doesn't require additional software.
Just FYI, current trials are limited to only 14 days .. not 30 😕
Yea…that’s a change that happened since this video was published. Thanks for sharing!
THANKS FOR THE INFO, VERY USEFULL....KEEP SAVE
Thanks! You too.
Ive been thinking about getting 1password for a while, what i don't get or this may be a downfall of these passwords managers. i sign into my emails sometimes on my work PC where i wont have the software and i don't have my phone on me, how do i sign in to my email then. Or what about say Netflix and i need to sign in on a smart TV, will i need the app and show the password to sign in?
Great questions. That does present a problem, but not an insurmountable one. For those accounts that you know you’ll need to access on a device that won’t have access to your password manager, I recommend creating a strong password that you can remember without the manager app. You can still store it in the manager vault, but for those few accounts that you need to access on your work computer or TV, make sure those are passwords you can remember. Make sense?
@@AllThingsSecured makes sense :) thanks for the reply.
Thanks for review ,so It is not safe to have my credit card info. in one password ?!
I don’t do it, but I think it’s about as safe as anywhere. It’s all up to what you feel comfortable with.
Does 1password work with brave and why is it better then the standard apple password manager.
Since the backbone of Brave is the same as Chrome, you can use the 1Password Chrome extension on Brave, no problem. As for Apple, I subscribe to the "division of software" model where no one service/company provides all of my security features.
@@AllThingsSecured thanks for that. Will be getting 1password then lol
You went over 2 factor authorization like it was bubble gum. You should have shared which one they offer.
Sorry about that, Bob. I've got plenty of other videos on 2FA if you want to watch them here: th-cam.com/video/fzUVrz0ixn8/w-d-xo.html
Wouldn't someone get into everything if they find the master password how can i double secure this?
Have a super-strong master password, and then you can use double-blind passwords for your most sensitive logins.
If I buy an individual account can I upgrade to a family one later down the line?
Yes
Thanks
My pleasure!
Hi have you reviewed mobile phone security android
I'll get there eventually, but since I don't use Android on a daily basis, it's a little bit harder for me :)
The family plan is not a feature of the software.
Yes and no. The ability to have a shared vault is a feature that not every password manager used to offer. It's much more common now.
Skip to 10:10 and get 1 Password just to make Double-Blind Passwords for all your accounts. Very clever idea indeed
Thanks so much for the comment!
He assumes others are fluent in the terms he uses, and is a bit too fast in explanation to shorten the video. So many people have short attention spans, or as well, like me, a bit un familiar with some of the issues and terms. I will need to watch again to absorb the details. I would love to see a video on how to use the 1 pass that is more intended to instruct than to review the product. So, I ask can I use this product, not does he think it's good?
That's useful feedback, Greg. Maybe I can try to do a "how I use 1Password" video as well. To be fair, this video is labeled as a "review" and that was my intention all along.
Josh, Yea I did know it was a review, but I wanted a how to, so I was kinda asking for that. I later was trying to change my passwords because I saw a breach status saying 3 days ago I was dark breached. My page stopped letting me change them after 5 or 6 were changed. I tried to contact 1 Pass but no reply. So, I was left last night thinking I was at risk.... Possibly I screwed up the 1 Pass settings, don't know, as I said I'm a bit lost on the site. I'm 65, was not born with a joy stick in my hand.
Are they support the FIDO2 security key as a master password??
They use the FIDO U2F protocol. For a more detailed explanation, see this thread: www.reddit.com/r/1Password/comments/epbp2t/does_1password_make_use_of_fido2_resident_keys/
Why don't you put credit cards in your 1password?
Just a personal preference thing. I don't mind typing in my credit card info and it's one less place where it gets stored. I don't think it's unsafe or anything.
