    Hi @Spunkyski1

    Thanks for taking the time to write in. The answer, by default, is no. By default your data is only stored on the device you create it on. So, I'd highly recommend backing that data up:

    Creating and restoring 1Password backups in iTunes (iOS)

    Please consider doing this periodically, so that the loss of (or theft of/damage to) your device does not result in data loss. You may also want to consider setting up syncing:

    Sync | 1Password for iOS

    Once you get the new device you can either restore the backup (instructions in the first link) or setup syncing using the same sync method, if you choose to sync.

    I hope that helps!

    Thank you. I now have my new phone and I installed the app. Went through set up process but where do I go to add my fingerprint as well as my password? I now have the iphone 6s and 1password pro. Thank you

    Hi @Spunkyski1

    You're very welcome!

    Fingerprints for Touch ID are not handled by 1Password. Those must be set up in iOS itself:

    Use Touch ID on iPhone and iPad - Apple Support

    Once you have Touch ID & your fingerprints set up for your device, you can enable Touch ID in 1Password:

    Use Touch ID | 1Password for iOS

    Please let us know how it turns out. :)
