The standalone macOS app isn’t going to be much value to me if the iOS app requires a subscription though.

1Password accounts seem like a very attractive target for something like Stuxnet. I just can’t bring myself to put my trust in a corporation, given the history of pivots & acquisitions and subsequent licence changes & data repurposing.

The iOS application doesn't require a subscription to use. It works just fine as it always has with standalone vaults via iCloud or Dropbox (and WLAN from a desktop).

On iOS, scroll down the list, you'll see an option on the welcome screen to create a standalone vault. You're not on a subscription doing this.

Already have a vault synced to Dropbox or iCloud? Tap the requisite option on the welcome screen and it'll suck the data in from your sync source of choice. Again, no subscription required.
