If you travel a lot, especially internationally, a new worry being added to the pile is the threat of being forced to unlock your phone for a customs agent. 1Password has a handy solution for this in the form of Travel Mode<\/a>, which temporarily deauthorizes a device to access your passwords and accounts.<\/p>\n It\u2019s pretty simple: before you head out, you bundle the passwords you do<\/em> want access to into a \u201cvault\u201d (it\u2019s the 1Password terminology) marked \u201csafe for travel.\u201d When you hit the button for travel mode, all the other passwords you\u2019ve saved will be completely removed from your device.<\/p>\n Boom.<\/p>\n So while a nosy border guard might get at your personal email and LinkedIn, if you selected those as safe for travel, the others will be beyond their reach \u2014 and yours, since presumably you haven\u2019t memorized all those 16-character nonsense generated passwords.<\/p>\n Once you\u2019re safe at your hotel or home, you turn off travel mode and all those passwords are restored. Administrators can control this too, so there\u2019s no need to trust that employees will use it right.<\/p>\n It\u2019s conceivable that customs might ask you to disable the mode, but that\u2019s pretty advanced stuff and this is a convenience feature for travelers, not a bulletproof mode for secret agents.
