Pre-download all attachments/documents from a subscription account to the end-device app
Hello.
This message is more of a feature request than a typical problem:
Recently I switched to a subscription based account from using standalone license apps. So far, it has been working out great in a sense that I practically do not feel any difference. When I moved to a subscription based account, all the attachments that I previously saved in my logins were converted to standalone documents that now require an explicit download if I want to view them. The latter makes sense, since now everything is stored on AgileBits servers and needs to be downloaded to the end-device app (Mac or mobile).
Few days ago I found myself in a situation where I did not have an internet connection and I needed to view an attachment (document) of one of my 1Password entries. Since I was not able to download it, I could not view it, something that would never happen when I was using standalone license apps with an iCloud sync.
This got me thinking that you never know when you would actually need to view a document and whether it was downloaded or not, can create inconvenience.
I think it would be nice if there would be an option somewhere in the end-device app (or the online account) which would say "Pre-download all documents: Yes/No", with default option as "No". This way, I do not have think "Oh, I am going to be in the no-Internet zone in a few hours and I might need to view the attachments for Categories A,B,C, and D, so I need to pre-download them now"
Thoughts?

Hi @Mr_Zaggy - Thanks for contacting us. Your understanding is correct in regards to how Documents currently work with a 1Password membership. I'm sorry for the inconvenience you had the other day. As of right now, I don't have a workaround besides downloading any documents you may need ahead of time, which is not a great solution or answer to your question. I'll make sure to mention your suggestions to the team and maybe we can improve this in the future. I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with me and I appreciate the constructive feedback. Enjoy the rest of your day! :+1:

I also asked for this feature here on October 2016 and still nothing. This is the only feature preventing me from moving to accounts.
I was really surprised and disappointed that when Travel Mode was announced this was not part of it. As I see it, this is essential for travelers, especially if you travel abroad.
What are the chances that we might even see this sometime?
