1Password chrome extension keeps getting locked because an update is available
1Password chrome extension keeps locking out every few minutes due to this!
ā
Sometimes there is actually an update available for chrome (I use their canary channel so updates are very frequent), but a few times I've noticed this coming even when Chrome says there aren't any updates.
This makes the extension almost unusable for me since it's used not just for passwords, but also used for autofill. Why should 1Password stop working every time chrome has an update? It doesn't make a lot of sense.
1Password Version: 1Password for Mac 8.5.0
Extension Version: version 2.1.4
OS Version: Mac 11.6.1

OMYGOODNESS IT'S CHRISTMAS
The 1Password browser extension in Chrome will now maintain a connection with the 1Password app even when a Chrome update is pending.

Adding my voice to the chorus here. I dread seeing these update notices :-( and would very much appreciate if 1password would find a solution.

I signed up just to let the team know that this will probably drive a lot of users into the arms of Apple and the iCloud Keychain. I already considered that. For now I'm using Safari, which doesn't update that often and integrates better.
