Let’s first talk about the most important parameter while choosing a password manager - cross-platform support. While both the password managers get the basics right, they differ in many aspects such as functionalities, price, cross-platform availability, and more. While we already have compared the iCloud Keychain to LastPass in depth, in this post, we will pit it against another popular alternative called 1Password. Apple also has steadily improved the iCloud Keychain functionalities to make it on par with the often-superior third-party password managers.

Google offers Chrome Password manager and a built-in option on Android devices to keep the passwords.

I'm glad 1Password 7 'looks like it's supported on iOS16' but personally, I'm not willing to take the chance that an Apple update breaks something with 1Password 7, unless 1Password makes a commitment to supporting (and updating) 1Password 7 until the accessibility fixes are truly implemented in 1Password 8.Both Google and Apple are making it easier than ever to store and manage the complex passwords for you. Much though it pains me to do so, I'm starting to look at alternatives. It looks like it's supported on iOS 16 from our testing, but if something does break it's unlikely that there'd be an update to it.' I asked the question: will 1Password 7 continue to work on iOS16? Their In terms of 1Password 7 support on iOS, we're not actively working on it anymore. There is, however one caveat and for me, it's a big one. IN fact, you can even have both versions on your device at the same time. As such, if you upgraded and wish you hadn't, you can roll back to 1Password 7. The 1Password team indicated that they are aware of the issues and are working on them, but as we are at version 8.9.3 as I write this, I'm beginning to lose some hope.Ĭurrently, both 1Password 7 and 1Password 8 are available in the app store and for the moment, the vaults seem to be backward compatible. Anyway, I have been a long-time user of 1Password, I love the product, I love the company, and I love that they've been pretty responsive to accessibility issues in the past. IN addition, there are numerous elements which seem to have no accessible name, VoiceOver just reads nothing if you swipe to these. Specifically, sensitive data such as passwords, usernames, and credit card numbers cannot be read with VoiceOver even if toggled to visible. Hopefully next year Apple will bring its features more inline with those of 1Password, and I can make the jump.Īs many have already expressed, there are a number of critical accessibility issues with the iOS and iPad OS versions of 1Password, 8. I'm beginning to think that iCloud keychain is looking increasingly attractive.

There's likely more niggles that I have forgotten.

There's also far less available through the VoiceOver rotor than I remember being the case. Oh yes, and when you go to customise what sections are displayed on the main screen, VoiceOver doesn't announce the current selection status of sections. My guess is that these are decorative elements, but who knows. There are also many phantom UI elements which VoiceOver finds when navigating some screen - all you get is a tone to indicate that VoiceOver focus has landed on something, but a double tap does nothing.

VoiceOver no longer reads the username, web address, password, and so on, even though they are visually displayed. It's mostly accessible from my experience, but some way short of the previous version.įor example, when viewing details of a saved password, login, etc.
