I have a trial membership on the Mac. I would like to add one person and make a purchase. Please advise as to whether it is possible to purchase the app or am I limited to family membership (even though only one other person)? And - most importantly - how to make the change? ...I could not figure out how to do this.

    Hi @angardon! Welcome to the forum :chuffed:

    It is indeed possible to upgrade an individual account to a Families account, and there's no need to purchase the apps separately - all members of an account get free access to use all of the 1Password apps, no separate purchases necessary! Individual accounts only support one person, so if you want to add another person, Families is the way to go (Families supports five family members or friends for a flat fee - learn more here: https://1password.com/families/)

    To upgrade your existing account, you'll want to sign into the web interface for it (all account management is done from the web interface): https://my.1password.com

    Once you've signed in there, over on the right click "Invite People...". You'll get a pop-up that'll give you the choice between upgrading to Families or to Teams - you want Families, so choose that option and follow the on-screen instructions to upgrade your account to Families.

    After that, you might want to have a look at our guide for inviting friends or family members to join your account: https://support.1password.com/family-sharing/

    I hope that helps! :+1:
