Face ID failing and unreliable after update

Apologies if this issue has already been discussed elsewhere but the latest update to 1Password for iOS has introduced a bug where the first Face ID scan will fail when invoking 1P through Password AutoFill

Steps to reproduce:
- Visit website with a stored login
- click 1P suggestion above keyboard
- Face ID scan will often fail, prompting for the account password and immediately and produces haptic feedback
- Press Face ID icon again and the second scan will usually work fine

Minor issue but it is frustrating having this happen at nearly every login

Thanks!

Same for me. Re-adding 1PW as password handling app temporary fixed it, but 30 minutes later it’s back to being broken again.

I'm sorry that you're both still seeing the issue. So that we can investigate further, I'd like to ask you to create a diagnostics report from your iOS device:

Hi

Can confirm this has not been fixed with the latest update, despite working as expected initially.

Thanks

@DalikVee

I'm sorry that you're also affected. Based on the diagnostics reports sent in by other folks, we've opened a new issue for this with our development team and the team is investigating. Hopefully a permanent fix is released in a future update soon.

„After some further testing, I've been able to replicate this behaviour on my own device. I've filed a new issue with the development team so that they can continue to investigate and work towards a fix.“
