If Codebook can use my Mac and sync my iPhone and iPad with it, then that is exactly what 1Password does. There is no "needs to be better", because functionality isn't the problem; the ability to hold and control your own vaults is.
By that nature, WiFi sync is "running your own server". The only difference is that the WiFi server is built in to both Codebook and 1Password, yet you have to run a VM or another barebones machine, and run Docker inside of that to get Bitwarden to work. That actually is NOT the same. 1Password is considering to do the same thing, which also is not the same.
The bold is a big issue. If you are putting your personal passwords on your office desktop or in that vault, database, you are already compromising a huge wall of separation. That wall between personal and professional should be maintained; locked, unlocked, or otherwise. In fact, this is a perfect reason why you should have two separate vaults, and not sync those between any devices not suited for that environment. If your job gave you a smartphone, use that to sync your office desktop vault with. Use your personal devices only for personal use. Any crossing of those could allow your employer to take control of those devices, as their data resides on it.
You're looking for immediate sync between multiple devices, which may not ever be an option because you're looking for an ALWAYS ON solution. If you want that, doing something online or running your own server that is exposed to the internet is your only solution. But as I have mentioned numerous times before in this thread, that carries its own security concerns, and that solution is not the purpose of WiFi sync.
I don't use Dropbox, and wouldn't even consider it an option for my passwords, because of the issues I also brought up numerous times in this thread concerning the 4th Amendment. But as mentioned above, Dropbox would actually be an option that you would need, or any other online-type solution, as that is what you are looking for.
