1Password biometric auth
Hello, I have just upgraded from 1password7 to 1password8 on my iphone and ipad. I had turned on faceID on 1password7 and have now done so on 1password8. When the device was turned off then on again...
Thank you for describing why you would find an option to have 1Password require your account password after restarting your iOS device useful. I can't say whether such a feature will be added to 1Password but I've filed a feature request on your behalf to have the team look into this further for future updates.
For the time being, you can set 1Password to require your account password more frequently by following these steps:
- Open and unlock 1Password for iOS.
- Tap the icon for your account or collection at the top left and choose Settings. (If you’re using an iPad, tap your account or collection at the top of the sidebar.)
- Tap Security.
- Set "Confirm my account password" to Every day.
And, as you mentioned, you can turn off biometrics for 1Password manually at anytime by tapping on the Lock 1Password and pause biometrics button on the Security settings page in the app.-Dave

I see that as an added security measure. When the phone is turned off or restarted IOS requires the passcode to unlock the phone. Also, the passphrase for 1Password can be required at different intervals. My passphrase to unlock 1Password is stronger and different than my iPhone passcode. I can manually require the passphrase, can this be an option in the security pane of the settings?
