1Password finally rolls out one of its most requested sharing features

You can now securely share passwords with anyone, even those who don't have a 1Password account.

What you need to know

1Password has announced a new feature for securely sharing passwords with anyone.
The new feature allows you to create a link with the information you're sharing and make it accessible even to people who don't use 1Password.
You can also specify when the link expires to reduce the risk of unauthorized access.

It's never a good practice to share your passwords due to various security risks. But in real-world setting, you'll need to share login credentials with friends and family members at some point, so 1Password is making that method a bit more secure.

The password management service has announced a new feature cleverly called Psst! (password secure sharing tool). It enables you to share passwords with anyone or only with people you trust via a link. You can even give this information to people who do not use 1Password.

Previously, 1Password would require people to have an account with the service before they could access the password you shared. LastPass, which is one of the best password managers for Android, still has that requirement in place. The latest 1Password feature, on the other hand, allows you to generate a link that anyone can use to access the password you'd like to share.

You can also restrict access only to select people by entering their email address. In this case, they will need to confirm their identity by verifying their email address using a one-time password.

What distinguishes the password manager's sharing feature is that it only shares a snapshot of the information at the time the link is created. This means that, unlike LastPass, if you change the password saved in your vault later, the shared password will not be updated.

You can also specify when the link will expire with the new feature. You have the option of keeping it accessible for an hour or up to 30 days. There is also the option to invalidate the link immediately after the recipient has viewed it. You can find detailed instructions on how to use Psst! in 1Password's guide here.

The hidden cost of food delivery

Noah Lichtenstein Contributor Share on Twitter Noah Lichtenstein is the founder and managing partner of Crossover , a diversified private technology fund backed by institutional investors, technology execs and professional athletes and entertainers. More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
