How does 1Password work in Android, which is supposed to be multi user capable?
I'm reading that Android, unlike iOS, is supposed to be multi user capable but I wonder how it works as I don't have any Android phones currently. I'm used to the iOS ecosystem.

@wkleem: As mentioned on the page you linked, this is handled by the OS, not individual apps:
A profile has separated app data but shares some system-wide settings (for example, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth). [...] An application’s data exists within each associated user. App data is sandboxed from other applications within the same user.

Thanks Brent.
I may be interested in a new phone for test purposes and a burner phone for visitors. I've got to try Android O, if I can wait for its release, or N which is currently available.

The thing that frustrates me about Android is that there are some really great devices that are affordable, but they're not likely to be the ones that get new versions soon or at all. :unamused:

I hear you @Brent! Google apparently has plans to shift security updates away from the carriers to be able to send updates to end users directly. See Project Treble:

I'm not holding my breath, but it will be great if and when that happens. :)
