    Hello folks,

    Our development team has released improvements to how auto-lock works with certain configurations such as high-performance screen sharing on macOS. Please update to 1Password for Mac version 8.11.12 or later: 


    If you still see the same issue after updating then please let me know so that we can investigate further.

Chiming in to follow. Also having the auto-lock after a few seconds issue with macOS high performance screen sharing.

If it helps, I had the issue on macOS 14 and 1Password 7, then upgraded to Sequoia and still had the issue, so I tried upgrading to 1Password 8… and still have the issue. It was to the point where I couldn't enter my password to transfer my stuff from 1PW 7 fast enough before it auto-locked. So I went looking and found this thread.

It does seem to work OK with regular, old fashioned screen sharing. But the high-performance screen sharing is so good that I don't want to work without it.

Hope you can figure this out soon. Does the fact that it was around for 1PW 7 provide any clues?

Thanks!
