After downloading 1P8, 7.9.8 version remains active. Can I delete it without risks for 1P8?

Marc_Ulmann

I use 1Password 7.9.8 on my iPhone and iPad. I downloaded the new version 1Password 8.
Now the 2 versions remain active (2 separate icons, updates on both version).
My question: Can I delete the old version 7.9.8 or do I risk deleting everything (1Password 7.9.8 and 8) by doing so? Thanks in advance

Hi @Marc_Ulmann:

Great question. Once you've made sure that everything looks good in 1Password 8 and all of your items are as you expect, you're definitely able to go ahead and remove 1Password 7 from your iPhone and iPad if you'd like.

Lol 8 is a mess. Don’t delete 7 just stay with 7

Thanks for your answers! Not really easy to decide :-DD
So I keep both for the meantime...

Marc_Ulman - a great and relevant question . A update that do not replace the old version is confusing. I do not understand busdriverBob since there no substantial to back up the opinion. (v 7 & 8 working OK for me / singel user)

Keep them both. I do, and have no problems or issues.

Once v8 has an Apple Watch app, I'll probably delete v7.

Thanks for your advice and comment

Also, as mentioned in a few other threads, make sure you have 1Password v8 selected for Autofill. The v8 icon is darker than v7.

Here is where to change the setting on your iPhone: \ Settings \ Passwords \ Autofill Passwords \
