Hello George47,

Thanks for your message. Exporting/importing is not intended for backing up your data. We take care of the back up for you on 1Password.com (or .ca.eu). The best source of a backup is your Emergency Kit as it contains your credentials to sign into your 1Password account. As long as you can access your data on 1Password.com, and once 1Password is reinstalled on your iOS device, signing into your account anew, will cause your data to reappear on that device.

If you would prefer to export your data anyways, you can follow this guide: How export data from 1Password

Then, importing can be done by clicking (⋮) at the top of the sidebar and selecting Import. Please note that when importing data that already exists, you run the risk of duplicating that data.

If you have any other questions, please let us know and we'd be happy to help!
