1Password extension requires two clicks to unlock with Touch ID

With the new 1Password extension in Firefox, it requires two clicks to unlock with Touch ID and open the extension, where the 1Password classic extension only requires one.

Can the 1Password extension be opened after authenticating with Touch ID?

When locked, if you click on the new extension icon in the toolbar, it will immediately prompt for Touch ID. After you authenticate, the authentication prompt just disappears. Nothing else happens. You have to click on the extension icon again to open the extension window.

When locked, if you click on the classic extension icon in the toolbar, it will open the extension window with a locked UI and then prompt for Touch ID. After you authenticate, the prompt disappears and the extension window UI now shows 1Password unlocked.


1Password Version: 7.8.7 (70807004)
Extension Version: 2.0.5
OS Version: macOS 11.5.2

    Thanks for taking the time to write to us about this!

    We already have plans to improve this behaviour, and I hope it will happen soon :)
