iOS install instructions maybe not correct?

I deleted the 1P data and app from my iPhone today, and then reinstalled it using these instructions from the 1P user guide: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/53682537/1P Guide.png

I use 1P on my Mac but, as instructed, on iOS I chose Use without an account. I then synced my data using wifi, which worked fine. At no point was I prompted to enter a master password.

I closed the 1P app, then re-opened it and was prompted to enter my master password. I tried entering the same master password that I use with 1P on my Mac. This did not work. And because I had not been prompted to enter a master password when I re-installed the 1P app on my iPhone, I had no idea what the master password was.

Maybe I did something wrong, but the installation instructions seem incomplete. I had to delete the 1P app again, then re-download it again, then follow my own judgement to correctly install it.

    @pomme4moi: If I understand correctly, you did not create a new vault (and thus Master Password) when you setup 1Password for iOS. Instead, you sync'd data from 1Password for Mac using the Wi-Fi server. If so, you'll need to enter the Master Password for the vault you sync'd over from your Mac. Does that help?

    I'm not clear on what instructions you believe were incorrect though. Can you clarify that for me? Perhaps there's something we can do to improve it. Thanks in advance! :)
