Anyone who has signed in to a website or app knows that it can be a challenge
to remember how you originally signed in to that website, app, or service.
The popular password manager 1Password is rolling out a new feature to help you
keep track of which service you usedâ¦
1Password sign in anywhere
The new feature rolling out to 1Password browser beta users today will remember
how you signed into every website, service, or app. For instance, if you visit
a website and choose the âSign in with Googleâ button, 1Password will
remember this. Next time you visit that website, 1Password will remind you that
you previously signed in with Google.
This, of course, means youâll have to remember at least one time which
service you used for signing in, or if you signed in with a unique login and
password.
But once 1Password learns what you used, 1Password will remember what you used
and automatically authenticate you with that service.

But as convenient as these options are, theyâre not hassle-free. They still
involve too many steps, clicks, and, yes â passwords. And itâs so easy to
get lost in the sea of choices and forget which account or provider you used
for which website.
When we announced our vision of the future, we introduced the concept of
Universal Sign On. What that means to us is that logging in should be
effortless, whether you use a password, your Facebook account, or anything else.
Today weâre starting with a familiar kind of sign-in service (also known as
social logins or SSO). When you visit a site and click a button like âSign in
with Googleâ, 1Password will remember your choice and offer to save it for
you. And when you return to the site, 1Password will seamlessly authenticate
you with your Google account.

Hereâs a look at the feature in action:
After signing in with a Google account, 1Password offers to remember this sign
in choice for future visits.
The new âsign in with anythingâ feature is rolling out now to users of the
1Password browser beta. You can sign up for the 1Password beta on the
companyâs website.
