1Password icon remains in Dock after login or restart [Fixed]
This is a new behaviour ?
It will only disappear from the dock after I open 1Password, unlock it and close its window
This should not be, I have the Finder's 1P menu item and the one in Safari, I do not need neitehr want to see that icon in the Dock forcing me to act on it (unlock and open and close) to make it disappear
Not usefull at all

Not sure if it is related but macOS starts with 1Password not just in the dock but is the active application in the menu bar (ie. the bolded application name next to the Apple icon) until I close it or open something else. Rather than starting with Finder next to the Apple icon.

Previously, when my Mac started up, 1Password in the dock would start (presumably to enable all the background tasks) and then exit on it's own.
Now it opens and stays open - as shown by spotlight dot still showing in dock image below many minutes after logging in:
I can manually go down there and quit the application, and this has no effect on the browser extensions etc.
So just wondering why it now starts the main application and remains open? I'm happy for it to "Start at login" as per the preferences check box, but there's no need to my knowledge for the app to remain open after starting the relevant processes.

I've merged your post into an existing thread for an issue where 1Password's icon will appear in the macOS Dock and stay there when starting your Mac. This is a known issue that our developer team is currently investigating.
For the time being, you can dismiss the icon by clicking on it to open 1Password and then closing the main window. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

I just noticed that there is a dedicated thread for this issue so if a mod can move me there that would be great.

Usually when I login to my MacBook Pro (running Sonoma 14.4.1) I've noticed that 1PW will appear in the Dock like it's supposed to, but now it stays in the Dock unless I launch it from the Dock. It used to launch automatically and not appear in the Dock and only required me to login once a site asked for a pw. Have I missed a setting somewhere?

I'm sorry for the issue, I've shared your report with the team. For now, you can open and then close 1Password's main window after restarting your Mac. That'll make the icon disappear from the Dock.

Same for me - glad I'm not the only one, but I had to dig a bit to find this thread :)
Same issue on both iMac M1 2021 & MacBook Pro M1 13"
