1P is Very Annoying
I've spent nearly an hour trying to figure this out. I've already downloaded LastPass. Here is my issue: I don't want 1P for security. I AM THE SECURITY. My device is never out of my reach. Anyone who attempts to take it will be introduced to my brass knuckles and baseball bat.
What I want is 1P to just freaking REMEMBER the 400 odd passwords I have. Every single time I go to use it, I have to log in again. I'm tired of this crap. I want it to stay running all of the time and give my passwords any time I need them. This option doesn't seem to be available. I've had 1P for over 5 years, but I will absolutely dump it and walk away if you can't make it stay running! That option SHOULD be OUR choice.

Hello pendozer! 👋
I'm sorry that 1Password is asking you to unlock it more often than expected. You can change your auto-lock settings, controlling how often 1Password will require your account password to unlock, by following the steps in this guide:
I see that you're using a few different browsers. Once, you've modified your auto-lock settings, in which browser are you still being prompted to unlock 1Password more often than expected? And does this only occur after you close the browser and then re-open it? Or does it occur even if the browser stays open?-Dave
It happens every time, even after browser is shut down and reopened. I've started using Apples "Passwords" app Version 1.3 (20620.2.4.11.5). No issues there. I think 1P is just all in for FULL on security. It never contemplated that not everyone needs security. Some people just need a tool to help manage 400 + passwords. This can happen when only tech staff are involved in design. I may be a small minority of users. I like the company, but I'll move on and find another app that does what I want.
Thanks for that. I use different browsers for different things. DuckduckGo, Waterfox are two of the fastest on the planet. I'll use Brave, Firefox, Opera, and Vivaldi often, and if I have to, I'll use Chrome. I'll never use Edge or Safari. Utter crap.
I use the Waterfox browser.
custom browsers aren't supported without some complex thinkering.
the browsers it supports to keep the session logged in are: brave, chrome, and firefox.
