Require Password every week please!

Please can we have a shorter timeout for "Require password" when using Touch ID? 2 weeks is too long, I often forget my complex password in the interim and it takes several attempts to get it right. ...

Hello @af101! 👋

Thank you for the suggestion! At the moment, when using Touch ID unlock, you can choose to have 1Password prompt you for your account password in the following intervals: 2 Weeks, 30 Days, or Never.

I generally recommend that you choose the 2 Weeks option since that seems to be a sweet spot in regards to convenience while also training your brain to remember your account password. If you're finding it difficult to memorize your current password then we have a guide on how to choose a more memorable and secure password: How to choose a good 1Password account password

That being said, I can see how adding more options (including a 1 Week option) would be useful and I've passed along your feedback to the team. 🙂
