Hello EssEmm​! 👋

I'm sorry that you're being prompted to unlock 1Password more often than expected. Try adjusting your auto-lock settings: 

  1. Open and unlock 1Password on your iPad.
  2. Tap your account or collection at the top of the sidebar and choose Settings. 
  3. Set "Auto-Lock on exit" to a longer time period so that the 1Password app doesn't lock immediately. 

You can read more about auto-lock here: Manage your unlock and auto-lock settings in 1Password

You mentioned that you were copying and pasting your passwords, you can setup AutoFill to have 1Password fill them directly: Use 1Password to save logins and sign in to apps and websites on your iPhone and iPad

Let me know if that doesn't help.

-Dave

    Doesn’t help.  I have to hit Touch ID + authenticate before each field is auto-populated.
