I have the IOS app and would like to be able to access these passwords on my MAC, if i sign in with 1Password on the MAC will this override the data on the phone?

Hi @LewisTW,

When syncing 1Password all sync sources are considered equal peers. One does not override the other. That said, it certainly wouldn't hurt to backup your data before performing the sync:

Creating and restoring 1Password backups in iTunes (iOS)

(see the section on iOS at the bottom of the page)

I hope that helps. Should you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to ask.

I am not able to use iCloud for any syncing or backing up for this.
will this affect anything?

@LewisTW,

1Password for iOS does not back up to iCloud. It backs up through iTunes. The steps to do so are outlined in the guide I linked above. As for your sync options, iCloud is one, but it isn't the only one. You can review all of your options for syncing here:

How to sync your 1Password data

Thanks!

Hi @LewisTW,

I’m so glad that Ben was able to help you get sorted out!

I hope that 1Password behaves perfectly for you from now on, but if you have any other questions or concerns, we're here for you! :)
