This episode of the Mac Power Users is brought to you by 1Password. Go to 1Password.com slash MPU to get 20% off your account. 1Password is the service that both Stephen and I use to protect ourselves and our family. It makes it easy to create, manage, and use an unlimited number of strong passwords. And sharing is a breeze with 1Password. You can securely share logins, credit cards, Wi-Fi codes, and other sensitive data with the appropriate permissions. I just shared a 1Password login recently with a family member who said, hey, wait a second, I don't have this app. Doesn't matter. You can share it with anybody. And you have a lot of control over those sharing privileges. For instance, you can say after it's used once or accessed once, then don't let that link be shared again. It's all very clever. Perhaps my favorite feature of 1Password, though, is Watchtower that scans your saved items and flags known data breaches, weak and reused passwords, and websites you use that support passkeys. Look, protecting yourself these days is a full-time job. There's a lot of bad guys out there trying to figure out ways to cause mischief. Watchtower is your guardian. I particularly like the way it points out passkey availability. I've been able to add a bunch of passkeys that I wasn't even aware of because of 1Password. 1Password is the full package. Go there, 1Password.com slash MPU. You can set it up for yourself, your family, your company. They've got options for everyone. But just go to 1Password.com slash MPU. Let them know you heard about it here on the Mac Power Users and get yourself a nice discount. Thank you, 1Password, for all of your support of the Mac Power Users.
