Why are sync errors hidden?

I have 1Password on my iPhone set up to sync over Dropbox. The problem is that when I'm connecting to my work guest Wi-Fi network, Dropbox sync fails (probably because access to Dropbox is blocked).

But the 1Password app does not indicate this failure other than deep inside the Settings->Sync menu.
So while using the app or the extension, there is no way to know that data is possibly stale.

Isn't is possible to provide an error alert, either through a badge or a notification when a sync failure is detected by the app?

1Password Version: 6.2.2
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: iOS 9
Sync Type: Dropbox

    Hi @smkp,

    Thanks for taking the time to write in with this concern. I think you raise a valid concern. I will pass the feedback along to our developers to see if there is a way we can make it more obvious when things are not working as they should be.
