1password8 spent around 10 seconds to load item content when the connection is from China

Thanks @Potatoes, thanks for sharing this.

I tried the steps you listed but still saw the results I previously encountered. After the first item took some time to load, no combination of cache clearing or network switching seemed to reintroduce that long load.

Based on the conversation here, and with others via email, we've filed an issue with the team for further investigation. Thanks for your help in troubleshooting this behavior!

@1P_Timothy Is there any progress on this issue?

Thanks for following up with us @we7l.

The investigation is still open but I'm sorry to say we don't have any updates to share at this time.

@1P_Timothy Is there any progress on this issue?

@we7l @1P_Timothy I'd also like to know the progress on this issue. Every time I need to use 1password on my Android phone, I turn on the VPN. Although it is inconvenient, it is the only way to do it.

Hi @we7l @Potatoes,

The investigation is still open but I'm sorry to say we don't have any updates to share at this time.

I was in China last week and also had issues with using 1password on my Android. I can not search or even show the list of items unless I switch to vpn. I otherwise just get a blank. I don't recall if I waited over 10 seconds. This is super annoying when I need to create a new password. I create it, and then I can't access the item just created!

When I turn on the VPN everything works. But using VPN in China is a pita.

Your frustration is completely understandable. The Development team are still investigating and I've gone ahead and added your case to the tracker.

Wanted to echo the issue. Traveling in China and having inconsistent experience. Right now the only way to use 1password on android is to use VPN. Is there some kind of offline mode I can turn on? Very troublesome to have to manage battery draw and VPN on/off for 1password...

Thank you for reporting the issue, I'm sorry for the inconvenience that it's causing. I'm afraid that I don't have another workaround to provide for now aside from using a VPN. I've let the team know the impact that the issue is causing to your use of 1Password and your Android device.
