Hi guys, i will need to reset my iPhone from scratch. currently, i have iCloud as syncing method.
Is it so that, when i reinstall the app on the new device, with my iCloud username given, my passwords and sessions info will automatically appear in my device?
Thanks in advance,
Ricardo

    Hi there @strahd13,

    Thanks for asking the question.

    Yes, if you have syncing on iCloud selected, and you've successfully synced all your items to iCloud, you would only need to log into the same iCloud user to get access the the items when you setup 1Password.

    Thanks Nathan for the reply.
    To confirm (also if others in the future may have same question): Since 1Password doesn't have a login, then when i setup the device as new, with my ICloud account, and install back the app, then all i need to do is open it and put the Master Password used and that should work well.
    Thanks for the support,
    Ricardo

    Correct; assuming you've been syncing your 1Password data with iCloud (following these instructions -- as it doesn't happen unless you've explicitly set it up) when you install 1Password you'd simply select the option to setup as an existing user and indicate your data is in iCloud. You'll be prompted for the Master Password you used on the device that synced the data to iCloud, and then you should be all set. :)
