New Passwords App

[Jackbequickly]

Unless you can export your passwords (doubtful) I'll pass.

Me too! I have been using Keeper for years.

 

[Jackbequickly]

Does this new app automatically enter passwords in the Face ID & Password?

 

[QuarterSwede]

Can anyone confirm that the verification codes also transfer to the new Passwords app?

They do.

Is it still not possible to access these passwords from a windows machine unless you have iCloud installed?

That is still the big selling point of 1Password for me. I can't install iCloud on my work pc. If they created a web app within iCloud.com for passwords you'd have me dropping 1Password immediately.

I can see the mrs passwords in the app and I am sure she can see mine. Different Apple ID as well. Nothing to hide but not sure that should happen?

I had deleted my passwords as I'm using 1password, did the update and a number of passwords re-appeared.
Not sure you can trust Apple when it says things are deleted, I had left iCloud sync on the ensure they were all deleted across all my Apple gear.

On the same phone? I wonder if that’s because these are single profile devices

Just jumped onto ios 18 and I also wanna know if you can import all passwords from 1Password into the new app, and if there is a plugin you can use on a windows laptop.

I use 1P frequently on my work laptop which is on windows.

My passwords I set up on the passwords app on phone, are not showing on the passwords app on mac since upgrading. Do they not sync with each other?

I find it being its own easily accessible app, one which even imports and such is much, much more useful than it being stuck in a menu somewhere. Moving my mother to it now will be much easier than it would have before. I'm still going to stick with 1Password though but for her it's great.

Anyone switch off 1password? I am thinking about it but I am wondering if this will be a PITA if you need to access passwords on devices that are not logged in with iCloud (like a work machine)

I also want to switch off 1P and stop paying for the subscription. But need to know what options there are (e.g. can you specify length of recommended password, include/exclude symbols) and definitely if there is a windows chrome plugin.

I’m considering using the Password app on my phone, but my 2018 MacBook Air won’t be able to upgrade to Sequoia to support it. It could be a year before I get a new MacBook. How significant is this disadvantage?

 

[Ledsteplin]

You can import .csv, It's passwords only. No notes, other types of docs like ID, passport etc etc. No attachments. But I think they are heading that way.

There is a spot for notes and site links.

 

[Wreckus]

Updated my iPhone and it appears that there is no iCloud for Windows update yet nor it appears an update for the Chrome extension yet as i'm not seeing anything yet.

 

[NYCValkyrie]

There is a spot for notes and site links.

I mean Secure Notes that aren't specific to a log in. 1P has a lot of categories and that is one of them.

Is there a way to transfer MS Authenticator 2FA stuff to Passwords?

I believe everything still uses Keychain, and the Passwords app is a kind of front-end to the passwords stored there.

So whatever you add to Passwords on iOS will show up in keychain on MacOS.

Disclaimer: I use Bitwarden and not the new passwords app (as I use Firefox as my browser and like the extra options Bitwarden provides).

 

[Boardiesboi]

So just confirming - There is currently no chrome plugin that allows you to use the passwords from the new password app on a windows laptop?

Installed the iCloud password extension and my passkeys are not showing up yet. Not sure if iCloud for Windows and/or the Chrome extension needs an update before it is available.

No. Different phones.

 

[Bazooka-joe]

I’ve used Keeper for years but migrated all my notes to this new password app. My subscription with Keeper is for another ten months but if the password app works out then I will get rid of Keeper..

 

[Webcat86]

No. Different phones.

So you’re saying on two different devices with 2 different Apple IDs you’re seeing someone else’s passwords? That doesn’t make any sense.

 

[forza69]

In order to beat 1Password, you have to be 1Password.

You've definitely missed something - a big increase in ease-of-access, making it a much more viable alternative to 1Password and others (including their subscriptions!). I'm personally looking forward to the possibility of ditching 1Password if this native Passwords app turns out to be fleshed-out enough.

If you get locked out of your Apple ID you can kiss your passwords bye bye. 1Password is still superior.

This app is so incomplete.
No options at all.

I want to be able to chose which characters are used, how long the password needs to be. A password generator basically
