Why can’t we export from the web vault?
Hi, Thank you for the amazing work you do. I want to export from 1Password to a new password manager, but unfortunately, I can't do it because I don't have a personal computer. An iPad Pro is my daily device, which is the case for many of us nowadays. My question is: why can't we do this from the web vault? We can import, but not export. There's no reason it should only be possible via a desktop app.
1Password Version: 8.10.56
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: iPadOS 18.3
Browser: Not Provided

Hello 1proller! 👋
Thank you for reaching out! The export feature is currently only available in the 1Password desktop app for Mac, Linux, and Windows:
That being said, I can see how an export feature for 1Password on the iPad would be useful and I've filed a feature request on your behalf.

Hi Dave, thank you for adding my vote! I hope the feature will be available soon, at least on the website. I feel limited right now and have to either use my work computer, which I absolutely don’t want to do, or borrow a PC from a friend, which is also inconvenient. All other password managers have this feature. - 1P_Dave

Thanks again for the feature request. I can't say when or if the feature will be added to either the mobile/tablet apps or the website. If you do need to export your items to another password manager because you're leaving 1Password then I recommend one of the following:
- Find a safe desktop or laptop and create a temporary user profile where you can install 1Password, export your data, and then import it into the new password manager. Delete the user profile when you're done.
- Manually migrate your items by copying and pasting the items from 1Password into the other password manager.
