    @gayemacy: If you're referring to Apple's iCloud Keychain in iOS itself, that's completely separate. Personally, I find it useful for some things, but be sure to not get confused about what you save in iCloud Keychain (Wi-Fi and service passwords, credit cards and logins supported as well) and what you save in 1Password (really, anything).

    The primary benefits of 1Password overs iCloud Keychain is its flexibility, and the fact that you're in control of your data. As far as I know, there's no way to export data from iCloud, and you can't easily edit information there either.

    I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions! :)

    I love 1Password now. And the support people are amazing. Kind, quick to respond, and understandable.
    Thanks all you Tech Elves!
