Does 1Password 7 actually support buying a license instead of a cloud subscription? You mentioned a "free version" using local Dropbox sync –that was definitely not free in 1Password 6 as that's what I'm doing right now. What has changed?

The main thing that's changed is only having 1 vault, but there are probably some other features that my mom wouldn't care for anyway. But yes, in 1Password 7 (or whenever they went with the subscription model) you can now use it for free if you still go with Dropbox sync.

Hmm are you sure? I just installed 1Password 7 for Mac, and it has replaced the 1Password 6 (which I had a license for).

It has detected Dropbox sync out-of-the-box and kept working with existing settings. But it won't refill passwords, unless I either subscribe or buy a license (a pop-up forces me to do so). I'm curious why you're not seeing the same behavior.
