Feature Requests: 1Password Logins bookmarklet

bpwhistler

Hi,



I've been using 1PW since it was first released. I've enjoyed the great customer service and aggressive development. Thanks AWS!



I also am an avid user of the old Bookmarklets feature that fell out of favor due to less than stellar security. I realize the flaw is present, but like to use it for low-risk sites...I find it easier and faster.



With that in mind, would it be possible to add a background updating feature (similar to Dropbox) to it? I realize it's not being actively developed anymore, but I'm fairly sure from the forums that it's still a popular feature. I often add a new password to 1PW which is subsequently updated to my iPhone/iPad version of 1PW Pro via Dropbox, but it would be REALLY nice if the bookmarklet was updated at the same time. I realize it won't be in my mobile Safari until I sync to iTunes...but that's just one less step I have to remember.



Thanks...and Merry Christmas

Thanks for the suggestion, bpwhistler, and thanks for being such a longtime customer! <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />



As you mention, the [url="http://help.agile.ws/1Password3/logins_bookmarklet.html"]"1Password Logins" bookmarklet[/url] is not the focus of our development at this time, but I have passed along your suggestion to the developers. We do encourage you to consider the more secure [url="http://help.agile.ws/___?javascript:window.location='onepassword://'+window.location"]"Look Up in 1Password" bookmarklet[/url] (which needs no updating since it is literally looking up the current login information in 1Password on your iOS device), but I know that background updating would make the older style bookmarklet much more useful to users who prefer the convenience of staying within Mobile Safari and not switching back and forth at all.



Merry Christmas to you, too!

Two small requests:



[list=1]

[*]Provide an option to change the name of the Logins bookmarklet. To save space on my bookmarks bar, mine is "[ 1P ]" -- I currently have to rename it every time I update the bookmarklet.

[*]Automatic updates, say every time 1Password is opened. It's a pain to have to remember to update manually.

[/list]



Thanks for making 1Password!

Welcome to the forums, lhagan! I have merged your post with this thread. Please see above and let me know if you have any additional questions.



I have passed your suggestions along to the developers.

Thanks for the reply. I actually didn't know about the lookup in 1Password bookmarklet -- this app has so many features! I'll give it a shot.

Cool. Please let me know how it goes for you. <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />

I would like to renew my wish list request for background syncing of the old style bookmarklet. I again realize it's not on your active development roadmap...but it would make at least some of us happy! <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />



Cheers.

Thanks for the bump. We have some great things planned for some upcoming releases that I think will help! <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />

IDEA: as 1Password already finds and keeps the Bookmarklet in the same position, can it would be great if it can [b]read the bookmarklet's name and keep the same name[/b].



Sometimes I choose un UTF8 symbol, sometimes «1Pswd» depending how much place I've got on my bookmarks bar. This way, it's more easy for we users as we don't need to assign a name and you don't need to change UI interface to add a "choose a Bookmarklet name".

Thanks for the suggestion, Michel!



We will definitely keep this in mind. We may not be able to please everyone, but we can sure try! <img src='http://forum.agile.ws/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />
