1 Password. I've had it for several years and it works well.

Is there a subscription version? I never understood how that worked. I never signed up for it and it still works well for me regardless.

Yes, they really push the subscription version and hide the stand-alone application. I am not even sure if you can still buy the stand-alone application.

Eventually a macOS or iOS update will make your version 7 of 1Password unusable and you will need to go to the subscription model. I hate this. If it was not a free benefit from work, I would probably be looking at alternatives.

I think at some point it stopped working with Chrome. I've trained my wife to use a password manager and integration needs to work so I decided to pay.

I started this thread because my wife was talking to my brother in law about what he'll do to help take over his parents finances. Somehow the topic of passwords came up and he declared that he has the best password ever since every account he uses it with declares that its a great password. That comment alone tempted me to remove all finance related tasks from him plate.

1Password 7 (non-subscription) works great with chrome. periodically either because of changes in Chrome or in 1P you need to reinstall the the extension.

The best integration is with Safari. If a site messages you a code 1P will automagically make it clickable to enter without having to go into Messages.

Safari does that, it's not a 1Password feature, it's a Safari feature.
