1Password for iOS was just upgraded to v7 and was not a paid upgrade (anyone who had previously purchased received the upgrade free of charge). As for what the future will bring, having just recently launched v7, it is a bit early to say. B

Speaking strictly in terms of money... How much would you pay for a license? $65? So what does that work out to if we release an upgrade every 2 - 2.5 years? About $30 / yr, right? That is about what a subscription costs as well, but t

Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts. I understand your perspective, and I’m sorry to hear that ultimately 1Password did not work out for you. One of the primary reasons we built 1Password memberships was because of difficultie

This is accurate. In general / on average standalone vaults require more support, and the price of licensing compared to subscription pricing reflects that. Ben Woodruff AgileBits

This quote was posted in response to a question about the Mac App Store and is taken out of context here. We’d strongly encourage anyone looking to subscribe but use standalone vaults to do so through our website, rather than the Mac App St

I’m sorry we’ve made you feel that way. What is it that causes these feelings for you? I certainly won’t deny that we feel strongly that for the vast majority of customers membership is going to provide the best experience, and so that is p

If you’re referring to 1Password here we’ve never advertised included upgrades forever. Licenses have always been sold per-person, per-platform, for a version of 1Password (e.x. 1Password 6). Including perpetual upgrades for a one-time fee

If you download 1Password through our website instead of the Mac App Store you can indeed use a subscription with standalone vaults. It isn’t the recommended configuration, as you’re paying for features you can’t use, but it is possible. We

This is a very good point that most people fail to understand. We get frequent demands to add 2FA to standalone vaults... the best we can do is try to explain. Ben Woodruff AgileBits

That is a real challenge. On one hand we love talking about 1Passsword and what we’re working on. On the other hand... 1) We often don’t even have contact details for customers (e.x. App Store purchases) 2) When we do have such contact deta

When accounts are frozen (which is what happens if you stop paying) 1Password enters a read-only state. You can’t use the browser extensions, make modifications, or add new data, but you’ll have read-only access to your data. We do have a C
