As much as I like 1Password… gosh, I hate this kind of release notes that attempt to be funny. Very unprofessional. What the hell is “Sync is now much sync-ier?” Is it more reliable? Is it faster? Or that means it really syncs now?
I love 1Password, but I’m a little concerned by the first bullet point: automatic backups available in iTunes. What does that mean? Is my data going to Apple servers?
I like that they attemp to be funny, it feels more personal. Like the Tumblr updates..
