Please don't really require typing the password every 2 weeks

As mcdaniel suggested, many of us including myself use a multitude of devices and don't want the aggravation of entering the master password on multiple devices every two weeks. The feature needs to be re-thought and definitely made optional. And yes, I read the blog on future passwordless authentication. That's superb for the future and I'm already passwordless with Microsoft. But this feature needs to be made optional.

Thank you for responding, and I would definitely appreciate the feedback going to the team

For consideration, I would guess the number of folks who buy 1Password and then exclusively use the Android app to be a vanishingly small percentage. Thankfully, I'm sure you have the metrics to prove or disprove my hypothesis.

If we just assume for a second that hypothesis is true, the users will for sure have to enter their password on other platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows, and any users who use the "appless" browser extensions). Let those vehicles serve as memory jogs, without punishing your very loyal Android users by forcing this security option upon them

The app already has configurable expiry timeouts, so making this configurable would harmonize the experience

@mdaniel, markbyrn thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.

The intent with the two week period is to help ensure users do not lock themselves out of 1Password. With Biometric unlock set to never in 1Password 7 for Android, it's quite possible to go for extended periods without using your account password. While there is a convenience factor, the other side of this means that if a phone is damaged or replaced a user might find themselves forgetting their password and locked out of their data.

I can definitely understand that for some, convenience might outweigh the scenario I described above. While I can't make any promises about the development of 1Password, I would be happy to share your feedback with the team. I know there is ongoing conversation on these topics and additional input is always appreciated!

markbyrn, you might be interested to read about some of our steps towards passwordless options and our work with the FIDO Alliance in this blog post:

Please drop the 'Your password is required every 2 weeks' requirement or make it an option. As I'm already using the biometric, this is a security overkill annoyance and meanwhile, the rest of the world is moving to passwordless authentication.
