Why is the auto-lock on exit maximum time limited to 8 hours on Android...

...but the "Never" option exists on the desktop app? Are there any plans to add the Never option to the android app in the near future? I just started a free trial and planned on subscribing for the single user annual plan, but I am considering canceling due to this seemingly unnecessary limitation. I am aware of the "Biometric" and "Device" unlock options and am not interested. I need full control over when the app locks using password access.


1Password Version: 8
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Android 12
Browser: mobile app

Yes, I need this as well. I got too many pop ups from the 1password Android app (current version) asking me to re-enter my ppassword.

Hi @bryanhampton479,

While I cannot guarantee if/when the 1Password for Android app will have a Never option added to the Auto-lock on Exit setting, I've added your interest to an open feature request on our end for this.

@Mujtabaq - Would you be being prompted to enter your account password to unlock the 1Password for Android app before the time set in the Auto-lock on exit setting?

@BrendanR1P Yes, multiples times before the time set
