1Password 8 Password Multiple Password Vault Unlock

So in 1PW7, I was able to unlock all my accounts with one password. However, it looks like in 1PW8, I need to unlock each account separately. We have quite a few vaults that we share with clients and unlocking each one is hassle. Can we get the 1PW7 behavior back so that we don't need to enter dozens of passwords to unlock all of our accounts?


1Password Version: 1Password for Mac 8.7.0
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 12.4

    You can unlock all of your accounts using one account password by ensuring that all of your 1Password accounts use the same password. You can read more here: How to use multiple accounts

    Alternatively, enabling Touch ID or Apple Watch unlock for 1Password 8 will also allow you to unlock all of your accounts at once.

    I hope that helps. 😊

    +1 This prompted an immediate downgrade to 1PW7 for me as well, as well as strongly discouraging my team/friends/family from upgrading. Multiple passwords defeats the purpose of, well, one password.

    The option is not presently available. Several users have asked for this feature to return. I'll bring up your use case to the team.
