1Password: Password Manager од 1Password
Review by Firefox user 17051350
Rated 3 out of 5
од Firefox user 17051350, пред 3 годиниI wrote a frustrated review to start but deleted that with my new understandings that might help first-timers like me.
First, this doesn't automatically make your passwords better or accounts safer. All this does is remember your bad old passwords. You have to manually go in and change all the passwords. As in, go to every site one at a time, go to your account, go to "change password" and then have 1P come up with a new password that you manually copy and paste. It'll remember the password, but you're doing most of the groundwork which seems like it will take a long time. Second, you can help it get started by downloading your saved passwords from your browser then uploading them into the 1P site. Still, it's just remembering your old, crappy password and not doing anything on it's own to make your accounts more secure until you go through the sites, one by one, updating them with the random password 1P generates. And if you're like me, that's a lot of sites. Third, I still haven't figured out how to get into, say, my email account if I'm not home or using a public computer. If I get 1P to change my password to some random letters and numbers to make it safe--great! But then when I need to check my email on a friend's computer, how do I do that? I'm seeing some things about 1P Anywhere but haven't gotten anything definitive yet. So keep that in mind if that's important for you.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review!
Yes, 1Password is a tool designed to store and manage all of your passwords. And no, it will not automatically or automagically change all of your passwords for all of your accounts because that’s not (currently) possible, since every website is built and designed differently, but not only that, it would also be an extremely intrusive and privacy-breaking action that we most certainly will not be comfortable offering! Our users’ privacy is extremely important to us :)
The transition to a password manager is not always an easy one. When you start with 1Password it will let you know how many websites and passwords from your list are weak or compromised, and you will need to go into each website and create a strong new password to improve your security. But once you’re done with that initial transition phase, you will be good to go and know that you are oh so much safer online! Not only that, you will never find yourself in the same situation again because 1Password will be there to generate strong passwords automatically for you from now on.
As for your question - if you have specific accounts or services that you would like to be able to log into without 1Password’s help, it is best to generate a strong memorable worded password for that website/service. That way you will be able to memorize it and log into it on any device. Simply open 1Password’s generator and change it from “Random passwords” to “Worded passwords”, or generate them here instead: https://1password.com/password-generator/?type=memorable
If you have further questions or require assistance with anything, do email us to support@1password.com and we’ll be happy to help!
