High background usage on iOS 26

Ever since I got my new iPhone 17 I'm seeing daily hours and hours of background activity from 1password, and it seems more people are suffering from the same issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/1Passwor...

    Hello folks,

    I wanted to share an update on the current status of the issue. After investigating the problem, and thank you to everyone who provided screenshots and diagnostics reports, our developers have implemented improvements to the idle timer process for the iOS AutoFill extension. We expect these changes will help reduce the battery usage some people have been experiencing, but further investigation will be needed after the improvements are fully rolled out to determine whether any additional work is required.

    These improvements are currently being tested in the beta version of 1Password for iOS. I will update this thread once they are included in a future production release.

    I am sorry again for the inconvenience, and I truly appreciate your continued patience and understanding.

    -Dave

Exactly the same here. Between 5-10% per day.

    iOS 26.1 (32B81) / 8.11.16 / iPhone 17 Pro

    Issue was also present with 8.11.14 and all iOS 26.1 beta's, multiple restarts, background app refresh is disabled for 1PW.

    5-15% battery usage per day

        Are there any updates on this? New iphone 17, unacceptable battery drain, background app refresh is off.

        Considering leaving 1password and I have seen people reporting this issue here and elsewhere for a month and am still waiting to see if there is a fix.
