1Password introduced a new feature today that will make it easier to find the login, password, or access code youre looking for, based on where youre using the app. It will now let you add a specific physical location to items, and theyll automatically appear in the new Nearby section of the apps home tab, depending on how close you are to that spot.The password manager already makes it easy to quickly access frequently used or favorited passwords on the mobile apps home tab without searching. But both of those sections can get cluttered if you have a long list of passwords you regularly access. The addition of location data will help ensure only the most relevant passwords are presented when opening the mobile app like your health card at the doctor or travel documents at the airport minimizing the need to scroll through a long list or remembering exactly how you named an item in order to find it through a search.Locations can be added to new or existing items saved in 1Password either while at the specific location or by dropping a pin using a new map view that lets you search for a place while youre elsewhere.You can customize the Nearby section of the 1Password mobile apps home tab to show passwords within a certain range, up to 10 miles.

You can only be presented with passwords associated to locations within 50 feet or up to 10 miles away although that could negate the usefulness of the feature if youre once again presented with an overly long list of items.A new map view added to the 1Password mobile app makes it easier to see all your passwords associated with nearby locations.

The company also added an additional layer of security around the loading of map data by giving users the option to turn off this feature entirely at any time.Being able to specify locations for passwords is a feature originally introduced through 1Password labs, a section of the app where the company lets users try out and provide feedback on new and experimental features before theyre rolled out to all users. Experimental features are made available in the 1Password mobile and desktop apps in the labs tab under Settings, and users can turn unreleased features on or off at any time.See More:
