Hi! Recently, it was found that developers of apps were using a cheaper, unsafe Chinese toolkit to make Apple apps. Can I be guaranteed that this latest Agile Bits 1 Password was not made this way?

    Hi @Winziggle,

    The short version is that XcodeGhost is a result of people using pirated versions of Xcode (the software used to develop iOS and Mac apps). We only use versions of Xcode provided by Apple. Most of the impacted apps are from the Chinese app store, though a few were found in the Canadian store.

    For a longer version, please see our blog post about XcodeGhost and 1Password :)

    If you have any other questions, please let us know!
