Serious issue: iOS 1Password, set to require password "every day," does *not* prompt for password
I am using the iOS 1Password app, using the new passkeys for login beta.
I have the iOS app set to unlock using FaceID, but I have selected the "prompt for password: Every day" option.

Hi Dave,
- I've updated and see no difference. I'm not prompted for my passkey when I open the app and it's been well over a day since I was last prompted for it (maybe it's been a week?)
- I am only using the passkey unlock account.
- I'm using a Yubikey 5 NFC using NFC and I'm not using iCloud Keychain. The FaceID prompt is the standard FaceID prompt that the 1Password iOS app displays. I have iCloud Keychain and passwords disabled. For instance, if I select "Lock" to lock the 1Password app, when I open it next there's the locked screen showing a "Sign in with passkey" button and a FaceID button. Clicking the FaceID button allows me to log in, no passkey required.
I have seen the app prompt me for the passkey in the past. I'm just sure it's not prompting every day, as selected. I am not sure what causes it to show the passkey prompt or how much time, if any, is needed for the passkey prompt to appear.
One theory I have is that if I use my passkey to log in to any of my devices, it does not prompt me on iOS when it should. I haven't tested this theory yet. E.g. maybe there is some logic in the 1Password code asking "When was last passkey login?" and if it's less than a day, it lets me in. But it should be asking when the last passkey login was on the device, not globally.
But again I am not sure if this is even what's happening, I just know it's not prompting me on my iPhone once a day, at least for me.
