What to expect with 1Password While Traveling?

What can I expect when I use 1Password with iOS and IPadOS outside of the U.S. as a traveler changing locations?

Apparently 1Password offers two processes or methods: Travel Vault and Not Travel Vault.

  • What is the process for using 1Password for non-travel vault entries (which I assume are stored on the local iOS and iPADOS devices)? Can I access these passwords while I'm offline, for example trying to log into wifi on a plane?

  • What happens if you remove entries in your "Travel Vault" from local devices, and then want to log into them via a website?

(My questions arise from the obscure and confusing Lastpass procedures I encountered while traveling with Lastpass.)

Hello @ConnieDee! 👋

Thanks for the questions! If you have the 1Password app installed on your iPad then you'll have access to your passwords even if you don't have internet access. Travel Mode is a way to temporarily remove vaults that you haven't marked "safe for travel" from the 1Password app if you're worried that a customs or border official may ask you to unlock your phone.

You can read more about travel mode here:

Let me know if you have any other questions once you've taken a look at those. 🙂
