Hello @TinhoLoco,

Thanks for reaching out! You can unlock the browser extensions through TouchID if it's integrated with the 1Password desktop app.

For some context, the 1Password extension connects to the 1Password desktop app through a feature called Shared Lock State. With this feature, when you sign into the app, you'll also be signed into the extension.

If TouchID is set in the 1Password desktop app and integration is enabled, the browser extension will prompt for TouchID through the desktop app so they can unlock at the same time.

May I ask if you have TouchID enabled in the 1Password desktop app? If so, can you check if the integration settings are enabled. Here's how -> https://support.1password.com/connect-1password-browser-app/#check-your-settings.

I look forward to hearing back from you.
