Trying to Sherlock 1Passwd a second time? They tried it with iCloud passwords and it didn’t work.
Live and learn, kids.
Edit: To be clear, 1Passwd survived by:
- Going cross-platform
- Family plan (including family-shared vaults)
- Enterprise
- Bundling and partnering (with the likes of Eero)
They had the know-how, people, and money to pull it off. Not every indie app getting Sherlocked can do that.
I’ve been a long time 1password user, but they turned away from individuals and towards b2b. And they’ve gotten a lot more expensive as well. I ultimately switched to iCloud Keychain and I’m quite happy with it. There’s still a few shortcomings, but they don’t matter as much anymore. I’m happy to see the upcoming changes.

I don’t agree. 1Password is exactly the application my family and I need and works extremely well. I don’t understand how you think they turned away from individuals. Adding b2b features doesn’t in any way take away from what the app provides for me. IMO the cost is pretty reasonable and the features and enhancements just keep coming. It was great when I started using it over 10 years ago, and now it is unrecognizable from then (in a good way).
