Feature Request: Multiple vaults unlocked at once

Hi, @Link512.

For clarification, if you open the 1Password desktop application, are you able to unlock a second account without locking the original one? You would do that from this menu:

If you click on the account that is locked, you should get an interface to unlock that account, and then both should remain unlocked until you lock 1Password.

If you want to unlock multiple accounts at once on Linux, they either need to have the same password, or you need to unlock each one manually and have fingerprint identification enabled. After unlocking the accounts, until 1Password restarts, all will unlock at the same time when you use the fingerprint reader.

Ah, I understand. So on macOS the fact that I have TouchID enabled automatically unlocks both accounts, whereas on Linux I have to manually unlock them when I start 1Password. Thank you for the clarification

Yes. If you have the Linux fingerprint reader enabled, we can use that to unlock multiple accounts at once so long as you haven't quit 1Password. This has to do with credentials that we have to save about each account, and Linux doesn't provide us with a good place to safely persist those credentials.
