Extend supported browsers list

Can we please extend the list of supported browsers, especially on windows where the user can't manually do this.

You currently support: Firefox, Chrome, Brave, Edge and Arc

Genuine question. How hard would be be to add Zen and LibreWolf? You already cater to chronium based niche browsers such as Brave and Arc. As getting around the Windows issue seems to be a no-go ( waiting 2+ years ). Why is it so difficult?  Is it more complex than I expect to add a browser?

  • Hello shaneturner! 👋

    Thank you for the feedback! We hope to build a secure way to use unsupported browsers with the 1Password for Windows desktop app and I've let the team know that you're eager to see this feature be introduced.

    Each supported browser was previously thoroughly vetted and reviewed by our security team. This process required a lot of manual work and, as a result, ended up with only a handful of supported browsers leaving every other browser that we couldn't find the time and resources to review out in the cold. It's why we've discontinued the old vetting process and we're hoping to bring the ability to use whatever browser you wish to the 1Password for Windows app in the future.
