Is version 8 reasonably mac-like? On 7 it's still a mac application that acts like a true mac application (drag/drop works properly everywhere, expansion, properly keyboard-enabled, etc) which is well nigh impossible when running inside a chrome box.
Agile Bits support kept insisting it was the same as the old native app and people kept complaining about bugs until I stopped following it.
It's as Mac-like as any other Electron app. Which is to say, it does a pretty good impression of a Mac app, but the bundle is 345M, with another 244M hiding in your Library directory.
It’s so rare that I use anything other than the 1Password Chrome extension that I couldn’t really tell you! The main app seems.. fine? But like I say, I hardly use it, so I probably wouldn’t notice details like you mention.
Do you have a different workflow where you use the main app a lot?
I keep a lot (including images) in the main app as an ecrypted shared resource for IDs and various other secure info. If I suddenly need my insurance card I can quickly grab it out of the app rather than rummage through the (unencrypted) icloud or dropbox filesystem on ios. And I can cut/past text out of the images. I also use it for logging into apps, dragging credentials into remote machines over ssh etc.
With 1password 7 whe safari plug in is more conveniently integrated than the chrome one which is pretty clunkly by comparison, though this is true of other chrome plug ins too. But that's not a big deal as I rarely use chrome anyway, just for google docs which don't need 1password.
Interesting! I had no idea you could even store files in it!
