1Password shared all the details in a blog post today, leading with support for Touch ID, Windows Hello, and even biometrics support on Linux.

Our #1 requested feature has been Touch ID & Windows Hello support. Now, if 1Password is locked and you have the desktop app installed, you can use biometric authentication to unlock faster than ever!

That’s great timing with the new iMac launching with the updated Magic Keyboard with Touch ID.

Another feature that will certainly be a crowd-pleaser, dark mode is here for 1Password in your browser 2.0.0.

If you stay up into the wee hours of the night like I do, you likely favor websites and apps that do dark mode well. This update brings full support for dark mode to 1Password in the browser—and it’s never looked better.

As for the other major changes, saving and editing credentials is easier than ever to use:
