Software Update: 1Password 7.3.684 / 7.1.4

For security, it is better to use different passwords so that if a particular service leaks passwords, not all your other accounts can be accessed with the same password. For keeping track of all these different passwords, password managers are a godsend. 1Password is one of them, and it is available as a web application and as an app on various platforms such as Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows. It can be tried for thirty days, after which a license must be obtained purchased. For more information about the possibilities, we refer to this page. AgileBits released two new versions a few days ago: 7.1.4 for Android and 7.3.684 for Windows. The lists of changes look like this:
