After I upgrade to 1Password 8 and get the new browser extensions do I need to log into 1Password each time I open a new/different browser?
This sounds like expected behaviour when using the extension by itself as it will automatically lock whenever your browser is closed.
If you set up 1Password in the browser to Integrate with the 1Password desktop app this will allow you to control the lock settings solely within the 1Password 8 desktop app. This means 1Password in the browser will remain unlocked even if you close the browser.
To integrate auto lock settings between 1Password desktop app and 1Password in the browser:
- Open your browser as you usually do.
- Unlock 1Password by clicking the 1Password icon in your browser’s toolbar (or press ctrl + shift + x). Enter your password at this point if necessary.
- Right click on the 1Password icon, then choose Settings.
- Turn on Integrate with 1Password app.
- Open the 1Password app. Go to Settings (Ctrl+Comma) >Browser.
- Make sure that " Connect with 1Password in the browser" is ticked.

Settings for the 1Password 8 desktop app:
Try those configurations and let me know how you get on. I'll be here if you need further help.
