i've been a user since my iPhone3gs. it's the only app i willingly throw my cash at every year. it sounds like i am just a vanilla user. i have one vault. in all these years i've never tagged or organized anything. my thousands of passwords have just been thrown in there.
with that being said, i don't care if it's electron or something else. i would have liked to have seen us apple users get a native app since the apple community has showed you guys all this love through the years.
but reality and business is what it is. i've used 1P on windows. the thing that bothered me was the non-parity between windows and mac. i think, and am probably right having consistency between the platforms makes devlopment easier, maybe with electron updates and new features will come out quicker? also just as important is the look, feel, and functionality being consistent. so when you jump platforms you know it's 1P.
all i want is more ways to retrieve a password, i really want a more frictionless way to add one entry, and i want a fast search. the other features of 1P are just gravy on potatoes. we like gravy but we really know it's the potatoes are sustaining us.
i do have one teeny wish, being able to set a password style as default. i always have to change it when i make a password. we should be able to define our password style globally in preferences imo, then change it individually on creation if needed.
one more, with all the formulas for making a password available, you can generate a random password that covers just about every login requirement except mixing numbers with memorable. the other two you can get a mix or numbers, caps, special chars, and letters. it's only memorable that is lagging behind. i know, it's just a little thing. being a user since my 3gs i've had alot of time working with it, it's easy to get annoyed over that timeframe.
