I'm using it, but I still don't like this part and begrudgingly moved off keepass with this still being an issue. Keepass has a portable version you can run off a USB stick, and I really miss that.

Looks like people are cool with Marco's patronage thing.


I considered it briefly and then realized I probably need the monthly pocket change more than the co-founder of tumblr. Had no problem paying $5 for features, but changing it to "patronage" changes how I feel about the same money. Psychology is weird.

Patronage doesn't auto renew, so it's virtually a donation button. I don't plan on ever paying so don't feel like you're doing some unspeakable act.

This is how I feel too, I guess. I'd be happy to pay for features or whatever, and I paid $5 for the premium version, but I'm a PhD student with a VW Passat and he's the cofounder of Tumblr with a BMW M5.

Evernote integration is going to cause you to be on one of those wonky e-mail clients. I use Outlook (Accompli) and it's pretty good. I wish I preferred the mail client because I actually like Peek and Pop.

I can always forward to my evernote email address to organize, so it's the not the biggest of deals, I'm just looking for a fluid experience between reviewing mail and organizing myself.

I think it's good to just get on board with Outlook, as they have dramatically improved since getting bought out. They immediately fixed notifications which were a lingering problem and in the last few months added updates for multi-tasking, alternative web browsers, spotlight search capabilities, Apple Watch support (if that's your thing), file grabbing (photos etc.) from other apps and on. I can see the next update being 3d touch, so it's on a clear upward swing.

Pretty sure setting them up in the Gmail account pushes them via Card/CalDav. I never have a problem with mine.

So I have LastPass, but I wasn't thrilled with the poor stability on Android, and even less so iOS - autofill works for very, very few things it seems, and switching to LastPass multiple times is a pain in the rear end. Is 1Password better about integration?

I can't comment on LastPass, but I really like 1Password. Been using it for about 3 years on both Windows and iOS. Never had any issues with it. I use Dropbox to sync everything up and a chrome extension to do autofills on desktop.

It offers to autofill any site or app with a login page for me, provided its running.

I picked up CloudBeats Pro when it went free a while ago, and it's suiting my needs pretty well. There's a free version you can try, though I don't know what's locked in it.

Google Music can work well but depending on her library makeup, method of and frequency of adding new music, etc., it can involve some maintenance. Using iTunes Match is pretty much effort-free in many/most cases.

iTunes Match really likes taking music I have locally on my phone (that I added manually), ignoring it completely, and streaming the radio edits of that music from iTunes. In some cases it has totally grayed out my local music and won't let me play it.

Definitely giving up on Apple Music and probably going back to Spotify. I like the curated playlists but everything else about that interface sucks.

Well yeah, using two different "sync" methods simultaneously doesn't tend to work well.

And you probably know this already but in case others don't, the Apple radio stations are available even if you don't have an Apple Music sub. I also dropped my sub after the free trial.

All City, The Mixtape, and On The Floor all work, on both an iTunes Match-enabled account, and a got-nothing-throwaway account.

Been getting a lot of expired certificate weirdness with Apple servers the last few days, though.

As far as I know changes you make on your phone get pushed to Google immediately. Changes you make on your desktop or android device are being fetched.

Then there is also this bug:

I haven't experienced this, no. You could try using the Audible app and playing stuff from your library with that. I assume you're talking about Audiobooks. If you're talking about book books, try something like Marvin or Kindle instead.

Yeah mine would often just jump back a few minutes or to the start of the chapter. I just tried to make an effort to only ever stop listening once I finished a chapter, which was annoying. Plus, isn't the little dot by the chapter name supposed to be your last finished or currently-on chapter? That would never update for me.

You can build your own apps for your own devices without having a developer account so I'm surprised we haven't heard more about emulators and stuff yet.

For basic password management, is there any advantage to using 1Password over iCloud Keychain?

Other than the Apple-only thing, I mean.

I'm not averse to buying 1P, especially at a discount, but I switched from LP to iCloud Keychain about 6 months ago and haven't really looked back.

I guess the only complaint I've had about iCloud Keychain is that there's no easy way to look at your passwords on iOS. You can autofill them, but not get .. at? .. them, if you need to read them off for use on a Windows device, for example.

There are some sites where neither iCloud or 1Password will work for auto-storing/submitting credentials. In those cases it's nice to have 1Password as an easy way to copy paste the credentials in.

1Password also has extensions for non-Safari web-browsers.
