- Unlock 1Password with a passkey (beta)
- Now in beta: Create and unlock a 1Password account with a passkey
Based on the feedback received from the beta, there are a few different issues and improvements that the team is planning to roll out before passkey unlock functionality is expanded further.
yet if I use 1Password, all my passkeys are protected behind a password that has to be easy to memorize and enter often.
Can you expand on this a little further? Your items in 1Password are protected using both your account password and a randomly generated Secret Key: About your Secret Key
Even if someone knows your account password, they would be unable to access your 1Password account on a new device without also knowing your Secret Key. You can avoid entering your account password each time that you use 1Password by enabling biometric unlock so that you can unlock 1Password using your face or fingerprint instead.
