I purchased the 1password Mac and Windows Bundle (Family License) back in 2014. What does the new Families plan offer over what I currently have? Is there a way to add my existing license to the Families account?

1Password Version: 6.2
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: OSX and Windows
Sync Type: dropbox

    Here is also a comparison.

    Find the 1Password that's right for you

    You can't transfer the license you have now, but you also don't have to sign up for 1Password Familes. It's a new service that has a lot to offer, but isn't for everyone. I think you can try it for 30 days if you want. So maybe give that a shot.

    I originally purchased the stand alone 1Password for both my mac and iphone, ipad since you guys first launched back in the days...Yupe, I am one of your early adopters :)

    I also upgraded to the family plan this year when it was first offered to me.

    My question is...

    since I use to sync my 1Password via Dropbox before upgrading to family plan.

    Do I still need to sync my family 1Password accts for all of the devices or I no longer need to do that and it is automatically synced via 1Password cloud since I have the family plan?

    This is really unclear and I can not find any specific detail instruction on this "seamless sync" benefit that you've feature on the family plan page.

    Please advice and give me specific direction how to sync seamlessly with my family plan for all of my family devices without using Dropbox or any other 3rd party service besides your 1Password cloud service.

    Thank you.

    @slamboogie88: I've already replied to your duplicate post here. Please let me know if you have any further questions — but hopefully just in one place! ;)
