I changed my Master Password for my Mac. Does this change the Master Password on my IOS devices too? Or do I change the Master Password on each IOS device I have?

    You need to use the old password at least once on each iOS device. Then you can continue using the old one (but why would you want to) or use the new one. As soon as you use the new one, the old one can no longer be used.

    The reason you need to use the old password once is because 1PW does not know about the new one until it has synced.

    Thank you for the great explanation. It makes sense to me now. I changed the Master Password on my Mac but when I went to my iPad the old Master Password was still accepted so I was confused. I just put the new Master Password into my iPad and it worked!
