1Password updated to version 7.8, adds Apple Silicon support, other changes

On Tuesday, software developer AgileBits announced that 1Password 7.8, the latest version of its password storage system, has received Apple Silicon support, and can now run natively on M1-based Macs.

The company offered the following comments:

Greetings and salutations, everyone! We’ve been hard at work on a bucketload of fixes and improvements to everyone’s favorite password manager in between episodes of WandaVision, The Rookie, and Ted Lasso. Additionally, in what will surely be the year of Apple Silicon, we are excited to announce that 1Password now runs natively on Apple’s latest processors and hardware. We’ve been unbelievably impressed at the speed and efficiency of the new Apple Silicon Macs and can’t wait to see what form factors roll out next. (Fingers crossed for that new 16-inch MacBook Pro!)

Other fixes and changes include the option to turn off autosaving of credit cards when typed in the Safari browser.

1Password 7.8 requires 10.12.6 Sierra or later to install and run and has yet to arrive via the Mac App Store, but can be downloaded directly from AgileBits’ web site.

If you’ve tried 1Password 7.8, please let us know about your experience in the comments.
