1Password informations accessible juste by using iPhone PIN code

Hello @Florian_Krumm! 👋

I understand that you would like to have 1Password on your iPhone always require your account password rather than your device PIN if Face ID fails. In order to have 1Password require your account password in that circumstance please follow these steps:

1. Open and unlock 1Password.
2. Tap Settings > Advanced > Security.
3. Turn on Always Show Lock Screen for Password AutoFill.

Going forward you'll always be required to authenticate using either Face ID or your account password instead of your PIN.

I hope that helps. 😊

Great thanks a lot @1P_Dave
I tested it and it works perfectly.

I have another question:
this parameter that you asked me to activate, does it have a use in another case? or this parameter was added in the application only for this purpose?
Because if this parameter has no other use, the small description below the parameter does not help the user at all to understand the use of this parameter.
(I use the French version of the application, I don't know what is written on the English version).

Thanks again for your help.

I'm happy to hear that my suggestion helped. 😊

"Always Show Lock Screen" forces the use of the 1Password lock screen instead of using the iOS Password AutoFill interface. Whether you turn this setting on or leave it off depends on whether you'd like iOS or 1Password itself to handle the unlock process when filling in an app. For example, if you've turned off "Lock on Exit" in the main 1Password app then turning on "Always Show Lock Screen" would result in you not having to unlock 1Password again when filling if the main 1Password app is already unlocked.

Regarding your specific inquiry regarding the use of a device PIN code when using Password AutoFill we have some documentation here: About AutoFill security in 1Password for iOS

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for the details ! @1P_Dave
I understand the usefulness of this option now.
The small problem I have is that the description that is displayed under the option does not help the user to understand the usefulness of it.
In the French version of the application, the description of this option says that : ''Enable this setting if you always want to see the locked screen of 1Password when using the automatic password filling. ''

In my opinion this description should be changed to make the user understand better the usefulness of this option. Because personally without coming to ask the question on the forum, I could never guess the usefulness of this option.

Thank you very much for your answer !

Thank you for the reply. I agree that the "Always show lock screen" setting could be made clearer. The functionality of this setting, as well as the wording describing the setting in the 1Password app, is something that our developers have been discussing internally and I've forwarded your feedback to them to help move the discussion forward.

Thank you again for your feedback. 😊
