What about when I'm on [not-my-machine-in-a-coffee-lounge]


Well, you can still retrieve passwords from iPhone/Android apps, or in worse case, 1Password Web UI right from Dropbox web interface.


If you're using this 1Password for everything, how do you log in to your Dropbox?

Assuming you have a passphrase for Dropbox, as well; then, I didn't know it had a web ui, and that ~does~ make things convenient --- assuming SSL or similar for security.


I don't use (no longer use) Dropbox. 1Password database is synced to my phone via Wi-Fi, and I always have my phone with me so it never really a problem. If I ever leave my phone elsewhere, then I've got a bigger problem anyway.

Dropbox Web UI is just a HTML implementation of 1Password (read-only) sitting in your disk, so its HTTP security depends onto Dropbox (or whatever sync service you use) rather than 1Password itself.
