v4 has WIFI Sync?

I am new to 1password. I had to start with v4 as I have Mavericks. iPhone is fully up to date 8.x version. iPhone 1password should sync wifi, but v4 shows no wifi in the sync preferences. There is a clear warning on the iPhone app that iCloud will not work without v5 but there is no such warning about wifi sync. I am guessing this was an oversite that was not put into the choice selections? Or did I miss something and I can actually sync wifi with v4and modern iPhone? Doesn't look like It as there are no wifi options in the sync preferences. - Thanks

    Hi @levelbest,

    A lot changed about Wi-Fi Sync in 1Password 5, including where it was located. In 1Password 4 you will find Wi-Fi Sync in Window > Wi-Fi Sync and the window has to be open for Wi-Fi Sync to be enabled.

    If you have any problems do let us know :smile:

    Here's a link to our Syncing over Wi-Fi which also covers 1Password 4 for Mac.

    Thanks, that was a useful tip. One comment to pas on to others though, at one point the prompt asked my for my master password on my Mac. That was confusing. I tried putting in my system login password a couple times. Then I figure It might be referring to 1passwords master password. That worked. Better wording would be helpful in the prompt.
