The Toronto-based password management company said that its 1Password 8 tool is its most advanced version as of press time.

IOS users can also take advantage of it, but as a Beta version only.

"Today! We are lifting the Early Access curtain on our brand new iOS app - and it is gorgeous," said 1Password's VP of Engineering, Michael Fey, via his official blog post.

1Password 8 iOS Beta Access Rolls Out!

According to 9To5Mac's latest report, the new version of 1Password is now available to iOS consumers as a Beta model.

This means that this version of the popular password manager tool is now more stable, secure, and has more efficient performance.

Since the iOS 1Password 8 offers all the desktop version features, the company decided to name it the "1Password Core."

As online attacks against iPhones and iPads become more rampant, the arrival of the 1Password 8 Beta version to iOS consumers will be a great help.

But, what can iOS users expect from this Beta password manager model?

What 1Password 8 iOS Beta Offers?

One of the most noticeable upgrades that 1Password 8 iOS Beta offers is the new UI (User Interface) design that offers a cohesive look for all applications on your iPhone and iPad.

The password manager app firm also announced that there are new customization options that iOS consumers can take advantage of. For example, iPads users now have the full layout that is very compatible to the device's size.

Aside from this, the 1Password 8 iOS Beta version also offers the popular Watchtower feature, which allows you to see all the password breaches and other security threats happening in your accounts.

In 2021, 1Password raised $100 million in funding for its enterprise expansion.

On the other hand, the 1Password web version previously received Windows Hello, Touch ID support, and other useful features.
