A couple of questions - master password, sharing in different locations.

I currently have a 1Password account, but I'm thinking about upgrading to families so my parents can also use it. However, I have a couple of questions that I couldn't find the answers to.

1) My parents live in a different city to me, is that sort of setup allowed with a families account?

2) Would my parents use the same master password that I use, or does each individual have their own master password?

Thanks.

    @digitaldave There are no geographical limits on families. Your parents would need their own accounts with their own Master Passwords. By default, you would be the Family Organiser and they would be ordinary users. So you get to decide which shared vaults they can see.
    After you have upgraded to Families you can invite them to join your family and they will then be prompted to create their own accounts.

    Hi @digitaldave!

    Yes.

    No, each user can choose their own Master Password when they create their account :+1:
