Hi,
This is my first question on this forum.
I check my apps on iphone and ipads manually every day ..sometimes more than once.
The reason is that the app updates should go automatically but not as fast I want. (I see this on many ios apple devices)
Is it a problem that I miss a update for a few days? Even when I update manually in the morning I notice there is a update in the evening (like version 777).
Regards,
F

Just curious what is the worst thing that can happen to the security of my 1password if the update would be any longer than a few days to max a week from the day the update is available. So longer than a few hours or 1 day…
Probably nothing. The issues start appearing if you don't update iOS and your apps for months. If it's a matter of days, I don't think the extra stress would be very beneficial :)

Hi Ana,
Thanks for your comment. The automatic update feature is sometimes not so quick, I notice that on different devices at home and outside (already talked to apple about it) Normally I don’t wait for for IOS to update automaticallly and do it manually.

It is not a problem if you don't update 1Password immediately. I see the same thing on my iOS device where app updates are sometimes downloaded a few hours later, or at night :+1:

Hi Dave_1p,****
Thank you for your reply,
Updates are set on automatic on all my devices.
I will continue to check manually as well (as a workaround and check the updates by the link you provided)
Imagine I still miss an update (for a week) will that have an efect on the *security* of 1password (safety and encryption of passwords etc.) or is it all about functionality?(By the way when I use signal , it warns me that there's an update available)
Regards,
F

Hello @F_9083x! 👋
We just released 1Password for iOS version 7.7.7 today and I myself didn't see it as available for my iPhone until I just checked again about an hour ago. You can make sure that your iPhone is configured to automatically update your apps by doing the following:
- Open the Settings app.
- Tap on App Store.
- Turn on "App Updates".
If your iPhone takes an extra few hours or a day to update the app that won't cause any issues with your ability to keep using 1Password on your iPhone. And you can always check to see if there is a new update by checking our release notes: 1Password for iOS Release Notes
I hope that helps. :)
