I concur with this feature request. I use a very long password for my master password in 1Password. Typing it in a dozen times a day SUCKS and I have a Yubikey sitting right here!

    I agree, I use and administer multiple 1password business and family accounts, and already use multiple different Yubikeys for said accounts on other platforms, such as Microsoft SSO, Proton, Google, etc...

    The fact that 1password itself cannot unlock via a physical token is appalling.

    Thank you for the feedback, I'll share it with the team. Out of curiosity, what platform do you use 1Password on? On a Mac, Windows PC, or something else? On each platform there are options to unlock 1Password using more convenient methods and I can share what's available for your platform.

      Hi Dave, 

      In this instance I'm talking about my Windows instance.

      I use 1Password on macOS and Ubuntu. On macOS there's no issue, since we can unlock it with the fingerprint directly. On Linux I haven't found a good alternative to the password.
