# Safari 5.1 extension intro

Things might look a little different the next time you hit the 1P button, but that’s ok! Do not adjust that dial–we’ve redesigned our 1Password Safari extension in the name of usability, speed, and bringing you more updates more quickly. Here’s a quick rundown of what’s new.

# Usability

- You now have a powerful, flexible, and fast slice of 1Password right in your browser
- Our new extension interface puts much more of your 1Password information at your fingertips
- You can copy a password for Flash sites or verify an Identity’s info is up-to-date without opening the 1Password app
- 1Password’s capabilities are now front and center for new users

# Speed

- The new interface is optimized for both mouse cowboys and keyboard ninjas

- Keyboard shortcuts:

  - Command-\ - Opens the 1Password extension interface
  - Command-Option-\ - Opens the extension to the Login Search tab
  - NEW Tab - Switch between the tabs for ‘Logins for this site’ and ‘All Logins’
  - NEW Command-arrow key - switch between tabs for Logins, Credit Cards, Identities, and the Strong Password Generator
  - NEW Right arrow key - View and copy an item’s details without opening 1Password (This one’s a big deal!)
  - NEW Escape - Hide the 1Password extension and go on about your business

# More updates, better experience

Without getting into the technical gobbledygook, our redesigned extension makes it much easier for us to deliver updates more often and even automatically to supported browsers, even without updating the 1Password app itself! Plus, the new design is going to become standard across the browsers we support, so you get more new features and a consistent experience no matter which browser you use.

So take some time to check out the new extension and its great features. Read our full blog post if you want more of the story, and let us know what you think!
