How can I just use my YubiKey instead of masterpassword to unlock vault

It's really annoying to have to constantly unlock my vault with a master password. Can we not have the option to unlock the vault with a Yubikey touch or at least pin and touch? It's really backward to go towards passwords when I have 2fa.

Hey there @Zazzn

At the moment, you'll need to use your account password to unlock the 1Password app. However, you can use Windows Hello to make this process faster and easier, and it'll work with the same methods you can currently use to unlock Windows:

Use Windows Hello to unlock 1Password on your Windows PC

If you'd like 1Password to stay unlocked longer, you can adjust this with the settings shown here: How to set 1Password to lock automatically.

Hope that helps. Let us know if you have any questions or run into any trouble. :)
