Sync between iDevice and Mac

This process is WAAAAY too cumbersome. Having to jump through that series of hoops just to sync my iPhone, iPad and the Mac is something that can and should be simplified. I understand that "security" is a big issue, but A) I have WPA Enterrprise activated on my wireless network, B) I live alone, and C) No one I know is akamai enough to try to sync their iPhone, (if they have one), with 1Password on my Mac, (considering that they know I have 1Password). So, no one in my neighborhood, in a small rural town in Texas, is going to be attempting to gather up all my passwords while driving by my apartment complex.
SplashShopper requires the app on both devices to be "open" and running on the two devices, but then, syncing is straightforward. Adding that additional step of typing in another "secret" word is just overkill.
C'mon guys. This may work ok if you are a spook traveling through the Ukraine or something, but.... Really?

    Hi @Hookoa,

    I would like to apologize for the delay in responding to you here but we have been a bit overwhelmed since the launch of 1Password 4 for Mac. We're all working hard and putting in extra hours to get back to our usual snappy responses and we really appreciate your patience.

    Thanks so much for providing your feedback here. Security software is always a delicate balancing act between security and convenience - I am sorry if you're feeling like you need spy-skills to get things synced up! But you are right, syncing via Wi-Fi is currently a bit of an involved process right now. Our developers are working on a way to make this more user-friendly in the future - I'll be sure to pass along your thoughts to them.
