Thanks for your reply. I have a single vault on my iMac. It isn't actually called 'Primary'. I also have a 1P account.
Great. In that case you'll be able to use 1Password 8 out of the box without going through a migration.
its use will be web-based and there will be no native app on my desktop.
If people are saying there won't be a desktop 1Password app anymore, then yes, they're wrong. As mentioned above, the apps continue to be an important part of the 1Password ecosystem. So much so that we recently wrote a blog post on exactly that point:
And you can read about the 1Password 8 for Mac app specifically, which is now in Early Access (akin to a 'beta'), here:
Jason isn't saying that there won't be a Mac app. What he is saying is that it won't be a native Mac app. His concern is about the technologies we're using to build the app, not the existence of it. The fact that we're using "web technologies" to build the app has no bearing on the ability to use it while offline.
Does that help clarify the situation?
