Cannot sync from 1Password iOS 4.5.3 to 1Password OS X 6.1

Hello,
I've recently switched to an older iPhone 4 (I was previously using a newer device). Thus, 1Password 4.5.3 seems to be the latest version available to me. I'm using 1Password 6.1 MAS version on my Mac.

iCloud sync used to work fine, but no longer does: the iOS version reports that no 1Password data was found on iCloud. Is this an issue of no legacy support?

1Password Version: 6.1
Extension Version: 4.5.5
OS Version: 10.11.4
Sync Type: iCloud

    Hi @pks,

    Thanks for writing in. Yes, the issue is that iOS 8 Apple changed their iCloud infrastructure. As such older devices can no longer sync with newer ones. The iPhone 4 can only run up to iOS 7. If you'd like to continue syncing your data via iCloud you'd need a newer device. An alternative option would be to sync using Dropbox:

    Sync with Dropbox | 1Password 6 for Mac

    Sync with Dropbox | 1Password for iOS

    (Please note that the iOS instructions are for the latest version -- unfortunately I do not have instructions for older versions, so you may see differences between the guide and your iPhone)
