Just a little PSA, 1Password7 let's you run entirely on local vault files. I have a NAS at home (Synology, but you could use whatever) to sync that vault file between it and all my devices, mobile included, only on wifi. I subscribe to 1Password's monthly model with the cloud services, but I just don't use any of them, and they have settings on every client which let you choose the default vault for saving, and I just use the local one. Best in class apps, local password storage only. Best of both worlds, unless there is some angle I'm missing. |

For those who wonder why one might subscribe to the cloud service when one is only going to use local vaults, rather than buying a license for the non-cloud version, the non-cloud version requires separate licenses for your Macs and for your Windows PCs, and major upgrades cost a substantial fraction of the initial price.
With the cloud service one purchase covers all your devices and all major upgrades for as long as your subscription is active.
I think it worked out when I did the math almost a year ago that if you have both Macs and PCs, then the cloud came out cheaper if you assumed a major upgrade every couple of years.
