Hello everyone,

Autumn has come to Canada! And with it comes the crisp morning air, spectacularly coloured trees, and of course a brand new hockey season. I hope you love this time of year as much as I do.

Speaking of amazing things, I have some exciting news to share with you about 1Password.

1Password 4 for Mac Is Here!

After nearly two years of design and development, 50+ internal alpha builds, 90+ beta releases and countless sleepless nights, I am tickled pink to announce 1Password 4 for Mac has arrived.

We’ve been blown away by the response. Shortly after being added to the Mac App Store, Apple featured 1Password and made it their Editor’s Choice. And then the unthinkable happened: we tamed the Mountain Lion to become the top grossing app in the entire App Store!

It was a truly fantastic launch day and we couldn’t have done it without our awesome customers.

Nearly 100 New Features and Improvements

1Password 4 for Mac has been rebuilt from the ground up to bring you the best possible security with unmatched productivity. From every pixel to every bit, 1Password 4 is a brand new application that gives you the best of both worlds.

There are nearly 100 new features and improvements packed into this new version. Here are a few of my favourites:

• 1Password mini – provides quick and easy access to all your information, right from your menu bar
• Secure-er than ever – authenticated 256-bit encryption protects 100% of your data
• Shared Vaults – choose what you share and who you share it with
• Mavericks ready – 1Password drops in on the wave
• Security Audit – quickly find weak and duplicate passwords
