With the advent of the new Passwords app from Apple, available on macOS Sequoia as well as iOS and iPadOS 18, is it time to switch from 1Password to this free app that is integrated in the operating system? In this episode, Don compares some of the functionally of Passwords versus 1Password, along with some security considerations for existing 1Password users. What you choose to do in the end really depends on where you are right now, and Don will help you decide.
System Requirements
The Passwords application is available on macOS 15 (Sequoia), iOS and iPadOS 18. If it was removed from your system, you can download it again from the App Store.

For many of who use 1Password, the issue has become should we use them both concurrently? I've been doing that, and am contemplating moving eventually to just the PW app. I've found it comparatively easier to use for just login features. And there are other options (e.g. Notes app) that can handle many of the other features offered in 1PW. That said, I remain ambivalent and would be interested in your take on the use of both for at least a trial period.
Hi Tom, Yes, I am also using them concurrently. Passwords works brilliantly for Login items. However, I'm pretty much dependant on Secure Notes as well as Vaults for both ScreenCastsOnline and my Family 1Password accounts. I'll probably continue using them concurrently but have no plans to ditch 1Password.
