Question

App freezes after fingerprint on S26 Ultra (One UI 8.5)

  • March 11, 2026

System Information:

  • Device: Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra
  • OS: One UI 8.5 (Android 16) security patch 2026-02-05
  • 1Password Version: 8.12.6 & 8.12.8

Description:

The 1Password app freezes/hangs immediately after a successful biometric (fingerprint) or device passcode authentication when opening the app directly.

Key Findings & Troubleshooting:

  • Autofill Works: The "Autofill" service works perfectly with biometrics. The issue only occurs when opening the 1Password app UI itself.
  • Animation Conflict: The app works normally only when "Remove animations" is enabled in Android Accessibility settings. If system animations are on, the app deadlocks after the biometric prompt disappears.
  • Regression Check: I have another S23 Ultra running 1Password 8.12.4 (on an older One UI version) which works flawlessly.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open 1Password app on S26 Ultra (One UI 8.5 security patch 2026-02-05).
  2. Authenticate via fingerprint.
  3. The biometric dialog disappears, but the app UI remains frozen and unresponsive.

      The same issue is on my S26 Ultra (1password version 8.12.6). On Galaxy Tab S8 everything works perfectly fine.
