Is v8 a mistake edition?

Hello again Mycenius,

Thanks for getting back to us with those earlier discussions. We've previously passed along your feedback regarding the PIN length and added your details to our trackers for the feature request of adding the PIN unlock option for the 1Password 8 mobile apps, and to our filed issue for date formatting.

although on Windows my use of the Windows PIN does work, but only about half the time (i.e. its flaky)

Regarding this comment, 1Password 8 uses Windows Hello for the PIN unlock. When you say this only works about half the time, it sounds like perhaps this maybe after a reboot or when the 1Password app is completely terminated. This is expected behaviour as 1Password requires your account password after a reboot. However, if you have a hardware backed Trusted Platform Module (TPM 2.0) in your windows device, you can set the following option through 1Password 8 for Windows so that Windows Hello can persist through system restarts: Use Windows Hello to unlock 1Password on your Windows PC - Manage your settings. Please let us know if this helps!

I'd also like to thank you for passing along the screenshots displaying the differences you are seeing between 1Password 7 and 8's favourites menus. I can see where this certainly does make a difference and included all of these details for the product team in a feature request.

Please let us know if you have any comments or feedback to share. Have a great day!
