I rely upon 1pw on iOS and Mac, so I was really happy with the Windows Store version of 1pw.

It is billed as a work-in-progress, but on my terribly limited HP Stream 7 tablet (Windows 10), 1Password is no less stable than any of the other apps.

I suspected that Windows development has been delayed by the need to support iOS MDM (mobile device management) for businesses. And here we are!

I also suspect that Microsoft changes in development options - particularly "Universal apps" via HTML and Javascript - moved too fast for an indie developer to follow, at least over the past 18 months.



We actually have different teams working on each platform, mostly anyway (our iOS and Mac teams have people who rotate between the two in addition to having dedicated members for each). The drop in noticeable forward momentum (at least publicly) on all of our projects over the last several months has been due to getting Teams implemented, everything seems calm on the surface but underneath there's a lot happening.

Our Windows developers will get their day to shine soon enough as well and we hope you'll enjoy the work they've done. :)
