    I'm frustrated by your reluctance to announce a timeline for a Windows Store App.

    Given LastPass just introduced a Windows Store App, I'm wondering if you have any news to share. I want true multi-OS support, and I own every version of 1Passwoed (iOS, Android, Windows, OS X). I'd be reluctant to switch given I like this product and switching is expensive.

    We're planning on submitting our desktop app (for Windows 8 Pro) to the Windows Store real soon.

    Hi guys,

    Just to be clear, we have not announced anything for the Windows Store, it is our goal to publish the full desktop app to the Windows store but we don't have any timeframe and nor will we share any information until we're ready to go.

    At the moment, 1Password is not using the Windows 8/Modern UI/Metro interface and because Internet Explorer does not support plugins in that interface, we can't integrate with it there at all, Microsoft will not permit it there.

    For now, 1Password does work fine in the Windows 8's desktop mode and will support the extensions in the metro version of Chrome and Firefox.

    Though not quite what I was looking for, I appreciate the sharing of some of your product roadmap - thanks!

    Will your support for Chrome/FireFox metro version extend to Windows RT?

    Windows RT is a completely different operating system than Windows 8. We haven't announced anything for Windows RT at this time.

    Would like to add a request for you to make a Windows 8 metro app.
    Even though I have an intel-based tablet, using the desktop app on a 10" tablet is a clunky experience.

    Personally I don't care that a metro app would not be able to integrate with metro internet exploror.
    Your iOS app does not integrate with iOS Safari but that does not prevent it from being a good app.

    Guess I'm curious... you mention a Metro version of Chrome and Firefox working within Windows RT since the legacy desktop version cannot be installed there. Unless I'm missing something there is no such animal as a Metro Chrome or Firefox. From what I see Windows RT has absolutely no option for 1Password. From the dialog above and since Windows RT has been out for quite awhile now it looks like 1Password is no longer an option. This of course is extremely disappointing. Especially since I have it on my Mac, iPad, and Android Phone. Been a supporter for many years and talked my company into buying multiple licenses as well. Hate to move from it but it may be my only option since no hint of support has been communicated.
