Password Manager 1Password has released an update for macOS and iOS that makes life much easier for users.

In the new version of 1Password, the program will automatically copy one-time passwords to the clipboard when you visit a site or log into an application. The update itself is free, as well as registration in the service, but using it requires a paid subscription. Free trial available.

One-time passwords, which are randomly generated by the program, are a great way to increase the security of your devices and accounts. Password Manager allows you to synchronize data from all devices and store it in a safe place.

Before the new update, the system operated like this: when you entered a site, the 1Password extension itself filled in the username and password, and then asked to enter a one-time password for two-factor authentication, which you had to find yourself in the program. Now everything happens automatically: the one-time password is copied from the service memory.

You can also store a variety of information in 1Password: credit cards and documents, personal records. It is also possible to create separate safes to sort the data.
