Hi,
I use 1pw7 and 1pw8 and apps are up to date.
Masterkey is set on 2 weeks in the settings of 1pw8.
2 weeks have gone now, why there’s no message a masterkey is required.?Or did you reset the time limit since last update ?

By the way can you please answer my 2 reactions from last week?🙏🙏
One It is about the easy way passwords can accidentally be copied in 1pw8 and the other is about the missing option to charge the masterkey in 1pw8 (like in 1pw7)

Every 2 weeks is so annoying when I need to access my key in a pinch moment. Where is my Forever option? My iPhone is already biometrics locked, why another re-enter master password every 2 weeks?

It's just f******g annoying.

Hi DJRiful
You can change the settings in the menu of 1password. If you still have issues start a own nee topic please.

Hi @DJRiful:

Thanks for your feedback. The default 2 week requirement was chosen to ensure that you remember your account password. It isn't possible to reset your account password, so we want to make sure that you remember it. With that in mind, it's possible to change the timer in Settings > Security > Require password. Let me know if that helps.

@F_9083x:

To confirm, you haven't entered your account password in 1Password 8 at all for the past 2 weeks, and you're still able to use Face ID or Touch ID to unlock 1Password 8? Let me know.
