Hey, Dave and all, Happy New Years. Is there any way to get 1P to work with a VPN?

Wondering if 1P works on Mac/iPhone with a VPN. In this case, Express VPN?
Thanks,
Stephen Berry

    I use 1Password on my Mac Pro, Macbook Pro, iPad, and iPhone . . . and all four utilize ExpressVPN.

    @speedyite: I'm not actually familiar with ExpressVPN, but I use at least 3 VPN services on various devices and haven't encountered any issues with 1Password as a result. Can you clarify what trouble you're having? And a happy new year to you too! We're here for you. :)

    I switch from VPN's a lot, and no issues with 1Password. And 1Password is used everyday.

    The more I think about it, the only case of a VPN causing trouble is with Touch Bar Macs, since macOS uses a local IPv6 connection to communicate with what is a separate iOS device. And that's only indirectly a 1Password problem. Some VPN software has interfered with that because they're sending the local traffic out over the internet too. Now, with browser integration, "security" software and other extensions, proxy, or firewall can interfere, but that's another matter entirely. Cheers! :)
