A family member has my old phone. Is it possible he can access my 1Password data without my keys, password, iPhone fingerprints or by my any other means?

    The iPhone was never wiped prior to turnover however certain apps were removed.

  • As @Naxterra mentioned they'd need your Master Password to unlock 1Password, unless you've configured it to unlock with Touch ID / Face ID, in which case they'd need that. That said, going forward, I'd highly recommend following Apple's guidance before disposing of a device:

    What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

    If you're using a 1Password membership then Naxterra's advice of de-authorizing the device is good, as then they would also need your Secret Key (and 2FA if enabled) to unlock. If you aren't using a membership then that wouldn't apply.
