.

I upgraded my iPad to iPadOS 16.1 today. After I did this, I checked Watchtower. The scores and categories appeared as usual, but when I taped to see details, 1Password crashed back to the iPad home screen. After the crash, 1Password would not restart - it crashed immediately when I attempted to bring up again. Resetting the iPad does not resolve this issue. I can only begin to use 1Password again on my iPad if I uninstall the app and download a fresh copy. I do not experience this on my iPhone, which is running iOS 16.1 too.

@millertime I don’t suspect this specific fix (Watchtower) is causing the delay. More likely to do with the Face ID issues. But 1Password has this obsession with bundling dozens of updates together instead of pushing out hot fixes. Hopefully they would consider revising this practice.

@WorldIRC It's not just the Watchtower problem, it's a series of bugs. I'm afraid that something is so incredibly wrong with the iOS team that they can't release. Whether Apple is preventing the release because the code is so bad or the internal test department won't give a go is pure speculation until there is a reliable statement from 1password that doesn't contain the usual blah blah.

I'm not one to comment much here or add fuel to the fire, but this is really embarrassing for 1Password.

On my iPad running iPasOS 16.3, going to watchtower and selecting any of the reports causes 1Password to crash. After the initial crash, 1Password will continue to cras immediately on use until I totally uninstall the app and download/reinstall.

I assume that this isn’t working as intended.

This is likely the same issue reported against iPadOS 16.1 back in 2022 https://1password.community/discussion/134761/ipados-16-1-watchtower-crash/p1

Sorry, I didn’t see this one before posting my item.

Crash on iPad (7th gen) OS16.3. Uninstalled and reinstalled also turned off Touch ID. Still crashing. Is there a patch for this.

I just signed up for 1Password and am having the same issue. I see that it’s been an issue since Oct. last year. What’s the plan to get this fixed??

@temanuelson the plan is the same for all of the other issues: ignore them and continue taking your money.

I want to check watchtower bust can’t because the app keeps closing down
