1Password8 on iPhone7

I am asking this question because I want to verify functionality.

Currently we are using 1Password7 as a family. I am happy with it and have no desire to upgrade.

I have not upgraded primarily because I have an iPhone7. It works and I have no desire to buy a new one if I don't have to do so.

Am I correct in my understanding that if I upgrade to 1Password8 that I will not be able to use 1password on my iPhone?

Can I upgrade to 1Password8 on my computer but continue to use 1Password7 to access the database on my iPhone7? Will it stop working?

What are my options?

Thanks

John

Hi @johntighi,

That's correct that you wouldn't be able to run 1Password 8 on an iPhone 7, since 1Password 8 requires iOS 17.5, but the iPhone 7 isn't able to run that version of iOS.

Your family can certainly run 1Password 8 on some devices and 1Password 7 on others. The devices that are using 1Password 7 won't have access to new features that are only available in 1Password 8 but they'll still have access to shared vaults.

I hope this helps and 1Password 8 will be waiting for you when you get a new phone!
