Getting 1Password 7 ready for the Mac App Store

Interesting in that you can host your own instance of their cloud server, but I really prefer something that uses standard cloud storage mechanisms (Dropbox, iCloud, etc.) for sync and works on top of that.

Like others here, I'll probably be reevaluating my choice when it feels like it's time to upgrade. For me, some of the open source solutions are perfect as far as the underlying storage format and sync technology, but lack good browser extensions that already understand all the quirks of various sites. That's the kind of thing that a commercial product can tend to do a better job at.

I use Enpass for this, which uses any kind of regular cloud storage backend and has a fully-featured desktop client and browser fill plugins for free. The mobile clients cost money ($10 per platform, once) which I think makes perfect sense.

It's simple enough to do with some version of KeePass. I'm currently using https://keeweb.info/ and Keepass2Android.

I use the same. The only PITA is unlocking it with my, rather long, pass phrase. I just find it really fiddly on mobile.

You can get it to recognize fingerprints or a short version of your password if it's even been fully unlocked for the current phone session. It's a little fiddly and may not meet the level of security you're looking for, but it's an option.

I knew about the short password, but hadn't seen the fingerprint option - that's just what I need to make it "secure enough" while being usable!

What do you use to fill browser login/passwords? There seem to be so many plugins for keepass

I don't use any plugins. I just copy/paste, which if you're doing it from the app stores the copied parameter in memory for a ~15 seconds, after which it is flushed.

1password is also supported by many mobile apps (on iOS at least).
