I use it to run the 1Password app on Ubuntu.

I was considering of using it also. How good is it ? Are there any differences, restrictions ? Currently I use the 1password web version.

  It's a bit of a slog: (1) You have to get Wine working, which can be kind of a hassle - there are a million different guides and ways to configure Wine especially wnen you factor in 32-bit versus 64-bit, winetricks, staging versus devel, etc. It's hard to sort through all the potential ways and figure out the simplest thing to do, which is basically: $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wine/wine-builds $ sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-devel $ wine ~/Downloads/1Password-4.6.1.617.exe <Now launch 1Password via the .desktop launcher that should have been created for you> (2) The password helper won't automatically start, so you have to choose "Restart 1Password Helper" from the Help menu after you start the main application. Then assuming you want to use the browser extensions, (3) You have to disable browser signature verification under Help->Advanced (while you're at it you might as well "tune for performance"). (4) The browser extension shortcut keys won't work, so you have to click the extension button instead of simply hitting Ctrl-\.

    hmm interesting. I never had to do any of Wine configuration on Ubuntu or Fedora. 1. sudo apt-get install wine 2. wine ~/Downloads/1passwod-blah.exec On first launch wine configures itself and default configuration IMO works fine for running 1Password. Last piece of puzzle is, making sure Password agent starts automatically when you login to dekstop so I have little .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart - https://gist.github.com/gnufied/c0615a8a90d21a8d575590b5001fbb72 https://gist.github.com/gnufied/c0615a8a90d21a8d575590b5001f...

How? It's a UWP app which Wine does not support.
- btgeekboy 10y ago
  The old, still-supported version 4.x works great.

  I actually never saw the UWP app, it's been temporarily yanked: https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/71733/where-did-the-uwp-version-go-will-be-returned-in-the-near-future https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/71733/where-did... I've been using 1Password 4, which works fine: https://app-updates.agilebits.com/download/OPW4 https://app-updates.agilebits.com/download/OPW4 Unfortunately I can't seem to make the 1Password 6 beta (which may or may not be the UWP app? Unclear to me) work with Wine 2.0.
  - LeoPanthera 10y ago
    Ah. Unfortunately I have a subscription plan and 1Password 4 won't connect to it.
    - rrdharan 10y ago
      I see. Yeah only 1Password 6 works with the teams/subscription stuff and unfortunately they don't have any plans to support 1Password 6 on Linux (whether through Wine or other means): https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/2846/new-product-request-1password-for-linux/p32 https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/2846/new-produc...
