My 1P8 beta not updating to 1P8 release version

As far as I can see 1P8 release is 8.7.0 80700098. My beta 1P is 8.7.0 80700095. When I click "check for updates" it shows "downloading update" but then changes directly to "you're up to date"....

Yes, the nightly > beta should work too. Sorry for omitting that. I was thinking you were looking to make the move now. If you should decide to go to the production channel immediately heres how to do that.

Change your settings to production channel to avoid any potential auto update. 1Password > Preferences > Advanced.

  1. Quit 1Password and all browser for good measure.
  2. Drag 1Password to the trash.* Do not use an app cleaner. Do this manually.
  3. Move ~/Library/Group Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/Library/Application Support/1Password/Data to the Desktop.
  4. Download 1Password 8 and install.
  5. Open 1Password again and then sign into your account when prompted. As our founder Dave put it:

Traveling back in time can be a rough ride. I suggest switching to the Beta channel to get the next stable update and then if you want to the production channel. You're welcome to stay on betas though as we have many more goodies on the way.
