Feedback for improving 1Password account recovery process
- 12 months ago
Hello nicos18! 👋
Thank you for the feedback! Currently, a recovery code allows you to recover access to your 1Password account if you lose either your account password or Secret Key (or, if you're using the passkey unlock beta, then you can recover access if you lose either your passkey or all of your trusted devices). To use a recovery code, you'll still need to have access to your email address to confirm your identity before being able to recover access to your passkey unlock account: Generate and use recovery codes
That being said, I can see how having more options for identity verification beyond access to your email address would be useful and I've filed a feature request on your behalf.
Regarding two-factor authentication (2FA), you can add multiple authentication factors so that you can still sign in even if you lose one factor. For example, you can add both an authentication app and a hardware security key:
- Turn on two-factor authentication for your 1Password account
- Use your security key as a second factor for your 1Password account
I hope that helps. 🙂

I forgot to share additional information. When I opened the item where my wife was viewing correct data, and then closed it not by saving without making any changes the information got updated.
The date was different. We were looking at the same item from the same location.
Thanks for the reply, I'm glad that you both see the same data now. If you see the issue pop-up again then please send an email to support@1Password.com along with a link to this thread and our support team can investigate further.

Yeah, I'm having a similar issue (also posted about it https://1password.community/discussion/144676/signing-into-sony-using-a-passkey-only-shows-a-qr-code#latest).
Started on MacOS in Safari with 1Pass browser extension- successfully created the passkey and can sign in there. However when trying to use the Android PSN app and sign in, I get the 'sign in via passkey prompts' but there doesn't appear to be any way to provide the passkey from 1Password to the PSN app. Just a lot of 'use another device' and QR code prompts.
Maybe it's working as intended, but I thought a passkey created one device/OS would be usable on others?
Hi- having a similar issue.
On MacOS 14.3.1 created a passkey for Sony Playstation Network via Safari browser and 1Password extension. Passkey successfully saved to my 1Password account and I can see it synced across devices (can also log into the Playstation Network via passkey using same Safari and 1Password browser extension).
However when I try to log into the Playstation Network mobile app on Android 14 (Pixel 4a 5G), I get the prompt to 'sign in via passkey', but once I tap I simply get a 'Sign in another way- view options' prompt (which itself leads to 'Use another device' and a QR code).
Admittedly this might be working as intended, but I thought if the passkey is created and synced in 1Password, it is accessible crossplatform and not tied to a single device. Is it not possible to use a passkey created on MacOS but synced in 1Password on native apps in Android?
