1Password Introduces Location-Based Access for Stored Items

The new feature allows users to link passwords and documents to physical locations for easier access on mobile devices.

1Password's new 'Nearby Items' feature surfaces relevant passwords and documents based on the user's physical location.
Users can assign locations to items in their vaults, which will then appear in the app when they are near those locations.
The feature includes a map view for setting and browsing item locations, with adjustable proximity ranges from 50 feet to 10 miles.
1Password emphasizes privacy, stating that location data is processed locally on devices and never stored, shared, or tracked externally.
The feature is optional and available now for iOS and Android users with the latest app update, with subscription plans starting at $2.99 per month.
