The Core also provides a very tangible benefit to everyone who uses our new 1Password apps: predictability.

If you’ve been following along with the development story of our new apps, you know that 1Password 8 for iOS is powered by our next generation 1Password Core the full capabilities of a desktop-class 1Password app are in the palm of your hand! Written primarily with SwiftUI and Rust, a secure systems programming language famous for its performance and safety, 1Password is more stable, more performant, and more secure than ever before. If you’d like to take a quick tour before testing, I’m happy to oblige. It’s worth noting that 1Password 8 is a separate app from 1Password 7, and you’ll need to join this TestFlight crew even if you’re already a 1Password for iOS tester. If that’s the case, happy testing – and don’t forget to report those bugs! Maybe all you need is the TestFlight link. I’ve written a whole post about why you’ll love this update and why you should check it out, but maybe you don’t need that. The answer to that question is: today! We are lifting the Early Access curtain on our brand new iOS app – and it is gorgeous. With 1Password 8 for Linux and Windows out in the world – and the Mac version in beta – many folks have justifiably been asking, “but what about iOS? When do I get to see that? I have been waiting to publish a post with this title for a long time.

Update: Our TestFlight program for 1Password 8 for iOS filled up fast! We’re making room for new testers every week, so check back often to sign up.
