They claim that their Secret Key in addition to the Master Password makes things more secure…but again that’s marketing speak for the fact that they require 2 passwords to get in. I want iOS, iPadOS, and macOS cross platform sync, auto fill in for web site passwords, no internet connectivity required ability to open and modify the vault, and local (DropBox or iCloud or whatever) storage and local storage backup options for the vault. The question though…is what else is there to select from?
I could live with the non native app if I had to…but no local storage or backup of vaults is likely to be a non starter. I’m also ok with them wanting to make more money…but absent some improvement in the local vault option I may have to look elsewhere. An encrypted blob that comprises the vault has been getting synced properly via DropBox for years.Īn they’ve abandoned a native macOS app…which I could live with but IMO a local storage vault that I can backup is a superior solution…their mileage may vary but it isn’t their vault. They’ve also disabled all ability for DropBox sync for vaults and claim that DropBox does’t provide sufficient security for their needs or sufficient synchronization capability…which seems like marketing speak for we want to get rid of individual licenses and force a subscription model for revenue purposes. So…with the latest “improvements” to 1Password with the upcoming version 8 we will no longer be allowed to have local storage vaults or vault backups…and having downloaded the app, connected it to my subscription account, then exited the app, disabled wifi on my laptop, and relaunched the app and the subscription account data is still available so obviously there’s some sort of local storage but apparently no way to access it for backup or import purposes.
