Is it possible to use the 1Password "family" or "team" accounts with Dropbox or iCloud storage?

Yes. (iCloud sync is limited to Mac/iOS devices) https://support.1password.com/sync-options/ https://support.1password.com/sync-options/

  No. The alternative sync options are for "If you don’t want the benefits of a 1Password membership", and a "team" or "family" account is by definition a 1Password membership.

    Is 1Password membership not inclusive of advanced sync options? edit: I thought it was, but not sure.

      Yes, you can make/use local vaults (and sync them e.g. using Dropbox) on iOS/macOS with a membership. Open 1Password, then "Preferences -> Advanced -> Allow creation of vaults outside of 1Password accounts".

        You can do that, but those local vaults aren't part of the team/family.

        "You can do that, but those local vaults aren't part of the team/family." Yes, this is correct. So if you want to share items or share a vault with a family member, you are obligated to store and sync with 1Password servers.

        Well, you can use third-party syncing with local vaults to sync with family members, e.g. using Dropbox sync with a Dropbox shared folder to share your vault with a family member. This just doesn't fall under the heading of "team" or "family" syncing.

        I am pretty sure that you are wrong. If you add a vault to e.g. Dropbox, you can share it. My wife and I had been doing this for years, even when we switched to a subscription. This was also AgileBits's supported/advised way of sharing vaults before 1password.com. They now just recommend using their 1password.com service for sharing.

I was not able to do that with standalone 6.8 for mac and ios. I bought 1Password back in version 4.2, and have gotten free automatic upgrades to 6.8. I believe I even bought the family plan back then, but when I tried to use it recently, I got nothing but dialogs asking me to log in to 1password.com (which I don't have an account on), and/or get a subscription which I have no interest in doing. It was only by trying to activate an additional family account did I discover the change in the business plan.
