1Password 7.9.5 says it is up to date

I went through hell when I upgraded from a License account to a subscription account and it took me hours of work to get my 1Password entries back in order after doing so
Before I download and update to 1Password 8 on my iMac, is there some way to archive my present 1Password database and then roll back to version 7 should I run into the same problem a second time?

I beg your problem for not thanking you all for your responses earlier. My bad.

Hi kurtd / BikerBob38:

As @statto1927 mentioned (thanks for the assist! 😎) 1Password 8 for Mac is a separate download, and 1Password 7 for Mac won't automatically update to 1Password 8. You can download 1Password 8 for Mac from our downloads page here: https://1password.com/downloads/mac/

Let me know how you get on with that!

1P8 is a completely new app - it doesn't update from 1P7
You need to download it and install it from the website.

I was wondering the same thing. What I noticed is the app store version is still version 7.9.5. So the app is at version 8 but only if you download it outside the app store. I'm not sure why this is.
