Short on time? Here’s how to cancel your 1Password subscription in 2026:
- 1. Export your passwords. Export your passwords as a CSV file so you can import them into your new password manager.
- 2. Cancel your 1Password subscription. Log into 1Password, click Billing, and unsubscribe from automatic renewal.
- 3. Uninstall 1Password. Navigate to your device’s settings and uninstall the 1Password app.
- 4. Try an alternative password manager. Download and install an alternative password manager like RoboForm to keep your information secure.
1Password is my favorite password manager in 2026, and it offers excellent security and a wide range of great features. That said, it might not be the right choice for every user — you might be looking for a password manager with a free plan, or one that offers more secure password import options for mobile.
Canceling your 1Password subscription is simple. However, because all of 1Password’s plans are prepaid, there are no refunds. If you’re a brand new 1Password user and you’re still within your 14-day free trial period, make sure you cancel your subscription before the 14 days is up so you don’t get charged. That said, there’s no credit card required for the free trial, so if you haven’t entered your credit card details, you should be fine.
After canceling your subscription, you’ll have access to 1Password until the end of your billing cycle. Don’t forget to export your passwords before your subscription is up, so you can easily import them into another password manager. On that note, you should pick an alternative password manager after uninstalling 1Password — my favorite is RoboForm.
