Dropbox vs iCloud

I have been syncing thru iCloud for a long time but may have originally synced thru Dropbox as I have a folder in Dropbox that says 1Password.agilekeychain and on my iOS devices I get lots of coded software data appearing in Dropbox every time i edit something. Can I delete all this and the agilekeychain without compromising the whole 1 Password app?

    Hi @KymMcDougall ,

    If you are currently using iCloud sync, then there is no need to keep the 1Password.agilekeychain file in Dropbox. It might also be useful to mention that in 1Password 5 for Mac and iOS (and 1Password 4 for Mac and iOS as well) your data is always stored locally in addition to being stored in the sync location, so removing the sync data will not harm your 1Password database.

    However, if it seems that Dropbox is updating when you edit something in 1Password, it might be a good idea to do a quick check on all your devices and make sure that it is iCloud that you are using, just in case. :)
