What's new in version 3?

Take 1PasswordAnywhere

View your 1Password 3 information when away from your computer with 1PasswordAnywhere. Enjoy a gorgeous, Mac-like interface for viewing all of your items in the browser--Logins, Identities, Secure Notes, Software Licenses, Wallet, and even recently generated passwords. You can copy user names, passwords, and anything else you have stored in 1Password for pasting into other applications.

Organize Software Licenses

Check out the all new dedicated section for organizing your Software Licenses. The addition of icons make each license stand out and you can add new Software items by dragging and dropping the application, or manually add your own icons. There's even a tool to scan your Applications folder to automatically update icons.

Attach files

You can now add file attachments to any item in 1Password! It's great for attaching file-based licenses and receipts to Software Licenses, adding images to Secure Notes, or adding a scan of your Passport directly to your Wallet. Files are copied into 1Password's database and encrypted along with all of your other information.

Edit items in your browser

Don't want to stop what you're doing to open 1Password and add details to a Login, or delete that credit card you don't use anymore? Then stay productive and make those changes faster than ever before. With 1Password 3, you can edit and delete Logins, Credit Cards, and Identities right from our browser extensions.

Get organized with Tags

Sorting your items into folders is good, but tagging can be very useful too. 1Password 3 enables you to tag all of its items, giving you more flexibility to tag, search, and organize your items for the way you work.

Sync with your iPhone and iPod touch

With 1Password 3, you now have much more control over what information you sync and how. The new Selective Sync feature lets you pick specific folders to sync with your iPhone and iPod touch. You can also replace the data on your iPhone, and configure if your data syncs automatically.

Safari Login Bookmarklet

1Password touch for iPhone and iPod touch is great for viewing and editing all your top secret information. For read-only and low-security sites, however, it would be great to be able to login directly in Safari. The Safari Login Bookmarklet makes this possible by allowing you to selectively sync your data to Safari as a bookmarklet. Once synced, simply click the bookmarklet from Mobile Safari's bookmarks window, enter your access code, and 1Password will fill in your login information.

New Vault type: Accounts

You have passwords for AirPort routers, Mail and Entourage accounts, FTP apps, Instant Messaging, and the iTunes Store--and now you can store them in Accounts. An entirely new category of 1Password items, Accounts is for storing passwords and information for applications and other services that you don't use in a browser.

Put a face to Login names

Your website Logins will pop off the screen, thanks to 1Password 3 automatically grabbing thumbnails images. 1Password even collects “favicons,” the tiny icons you see in the address bar, to help the Login you need stand out from the crowd.

Fresh new Wallet

The Wallet has been redesigned with the rest of 1Password, sporting gorgeous new icons for all item types and other bits of polish. With the new Accounts and Software sections, the new Wallet makes it much easier to find what you need.

Put a face to your Identities

1Password 3 lets you add a unique image to each Identity to help it stand out. You can even use your Mac's iSight on the fly.

Smart Search

Find just what you need with 1Password 3's new and improved search features. You can now search Secure Notes and tags (another feature new to 1Password 3), and an all-new Smart Search feature offers multiple filters for the ultimate search-fu.

Gorgeous New UI

1Password 3 features a gorgeous new user interface that looks so sweet, some of our testers actually tried to lick their displays. It's also been redesigned for a widescreen world, featuring a new, more flexible layout, and a lock screen that means business when it comes to protecting your data.

Clipboard Security

New clipboard security feature automatically removes passwords from the clipboard to protect your data. By default the clipboard is cleared after 90 seconds.
