iPadOS 16.1 Watchtower crash [Fixed. Please see the approved answer for details.]

Just before a I opened 1Password on my iPad Pro (12,9 Zoll, 3. Generation) with SW v. 16.1.1. to clean up some logins. After the first correction I confirmed the popup regarding the allowance to send failure logs to 1Password. Then I opened Watchtower to see what‘s waiting for correction. First I opened the point „open …. (right corner) with 2 open items. 1 of them I solved and then the tragedy started. Every time I tried to open the App on my iPad it crashed. Than I closed all open app‘s and shut down my iPad and started new. Again the same crashes appeared. So now I‘ll need your help….please.
As I can not look into the version on my iPad I suppose I have as always the latest version like on all other devices this must be
