The folks at AgileBits have knocked 50 percent off the price of 1Password for both iOS and OS X in response to the recently uncovered “heartbleed” security flaw. You can pick up 1Password for $8.99 on the App Store, and Mac users can download the OS X application for $24.99.
It goes without saying that 1Password is a must-have app for both iOS and OS X, and we’ve talked about how much we love AgileBits’ software countless times before. Given that all of us should have changed our passwords for Heartbleed-compromised websites, there’s been no better time for iOS and Mac users to invest in 1Password.
As a reminder, 1Password lets users create super-strong, unique passwords for individual Internet services – better yet, however, it allows users to access them all using a master “one password.” It can also auto-fill password text fields on OS X, and for iOS users a built-in Web browser makes it incredibly easy to quickly input login details, credit card information, and more inside of a secure environment.
You can generate passwords of up 30 characters in length using the software, and these can include a customizable mixture of digits and symbols; users can also choose to configure a “pronounceable” 1Password-generated password.
AgileBits is continually improving its 1Password software, and both the iOS and OS X apps have received countless updates in the past. As mentioned, both applications can be downloaded for 50 percent off their usual retail price; the iOS application requires iOS 6.0 or later, and it’s optimized for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
1Password for iOS can be downloaded for $8.99 on the App Store.
1Password for OS X, on the other hand, is available for $24.99 on the Mac App Store.
Check both apps out now. As AgileBits notes, “Strong, unique passwords have never been more important!”
