Question

Passkey are still accessible in travel mode

I turned on “travel mode” for my social media and bank vault, then deleted all the apps from my phone before traveling.

Later, I re-downloaded the apps—and was still able to log in using my passkey.

So… what’s the actual point of travel mode if I can still access everything which is marked as easily? Am I misunderstanding how it’s supposed to work, or is this expected behavior?

Hello @centurion! 👋

Thank you for reaching out, I'm sorry that you're seeing unexpected behaviour with passkeys. When you enable travel mode, all vaults and their contents (including passkeys) are hidden from 1Password on your devices. 

So that I can look into this further can you tell me the following: 

  1. Are you seeing the issue on an iPhone or Android phone?
  2. Can you check to see if you have any other password managers currently enabled: 


I look forward to hearing from you.

@centurion 

Thank you for answering those questions. So that I can investigate further, please enable Travel Mode again and reproduce the issue, checking to see if you can still sign in using a passkey from 1Password. Then, without turning off Travel Mode, I'd like to ask you to create and share a 1Password diagnostics report from your iOS device:

Send a diagnostics report (iOS)

Attach the diagnostics to an email message addressed to support@1password.com
