If I switch all devices to sync via Wi-Fi, which device will take precedence?

I first purchased and downloaded and used 1Password on my iPhone, then added it to my iPad. I purchased a Mac last year, and the Apple store put the app on my Mac. The Mac was not consistent syncing with my iPhone app. Due to the recent changes, I plan to switch to Wi-Fi sync. I want to know which device will take precedence so that I don't loose any of the up to date entries. Thanks!

1Password Version: 6.02
Extension Version: 4.4.3
OS Version: 10.10.5
Sync Type: iCloud

    Wifi sync is bi-directional so the latest entry of an item on any device will take precedence of any earlier entry of the same item on any other device. If there are conflicts 1Password will flag them for you.

    Thanks for your help! I didn't know about the conflict flag.

    In that case I should mention how you can easily check for any conflicts using 1P for Mac. :)

    Double-click on the magnifying glass icon at the left end of the search box on in the main 1P for Mac app and from the drop down that appears choose Show Search Options. Then click on the Title drop down and choose Conflict fields. You can save the search result as a smart folder if you wish...which will make it very easy to check in the future for any sync conflicts.
