DenalB thanks for bringing that up, as I wasn't aware of that thread. The discussion in that thread seems to have died out since the middle of March, but I noticed that @keinanesq had already mentioned some of the points I brought up in this thread as well, with the main inconsistent thin in all of this being the removal of the "never" option on iOS while at the same time adding the option on Windows. This inconsistency hasn't been addressed by AgileBits as far as I'm aware. Maybe @ag_kevin Jack_P_1P 1P_Ben or someone else from AgileBits could elaborate on this?
I might add that I don't need or want the "never" option, hence why I didn't even notice the removal of that option on iOS. I'm only interested in bringing back the option "after reboot" in 1Password 8 on iOS, as that was my preferred setting, but I understand the other use cases for those that want the "never" option as well. As long as it's implemented as an option tucked away in the settings, with (multiple) warnings when choosing the option, I don't see the problem. Hiding the setting somewhere deep down in a menu and having the warnings when enabling it should be enough to scare of the users who'll probably be most likely to forget their password. And if you do forget it you have to rely on the emergency kit and/or other family organizer/administrator for help with gaining access again.
