Update (Firefox) browser extension looked visually dodgy

Hi
Now I've started using 1P across all my devices (Win 7 PC, Mac & iPhone) I should be feeling more secure - 1P is a great bit of software, but I wasn't terribly impressed with the FF extension update notification.

Tonight when I went to log into a site via my Firefox extension on my Win 7 PC, after I clicked the 1P icon I got a message saying an update was available. However, this was a pretty plain looking notification, there was no reference to Agile (that I noticed), and only a single reference to 1Pasword anywhere in the update info. I have updated, but I have to say I was a little nervous because it didn't have a particularly professional look/feel to the notification, and after I hit update I did wonder whether it wasn't bonafide, and someone was now in possession of all my secure data.

I know I'm just being paranoid - I am aren't I (?), but perhaps the update notification could look a bit more genuine in future?

    Thanks for the feedback, statto, and welcome to the forum!

    If you ever feel uncertain again, remember that you can always refuse it. Later, at your convenience, just launch 1Password, and choose Help > Check for New Version.
