Will 1Password prompt users to upgrade or show that an update is available?

I'm wondering whether to tell family members that they should upgrade to 1Password version 8. Will 1Password prompt users to upgrade or show that an update is available?


1Password Version: 7.9.4
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS

    Installing 1Password 8 should remove the 1Password 7 app from the device.

    When I downloaded 1P 8 from the website and ran the installer, it didn't delete 1Password 7.app but instead zipped it and left it in Applications. (Handy in case you want to revert to 7.)

    Hey @doray :

    1Password 7 will not prompt you to upgrade to 1Password 8. If you or your family members would like to upgrade to 1Password 8, you can download it from our website here: 1Password - Download 1Password 8 for Mac.. Installing 1Password 8 should remove the 1Password 7 app from the device.

    Let me know if you have any questions. 😊
