Setting a different password for a phone?
I have a complex local password to unlock 1password on my Mac. I'd like to set a different password to unlock my vaults on my phone because the switch between upper/lower/symbols makes it a real pain...

ModeratorThank you for the reply. I'd like to better understand the threat that you're trying to protect against so that I can best communicate your request to the team. Can you tell me a little more about the vulnerability that you're trying to protect against on your desktop?
This guide was published a few years ago but it has a great breakdown of how difficult it is to guess an account password like arbor-anxiety-vanuatu-ingrate if the account password is randomly generated by 1Password: How Strong Should your Account Password be?
On the iPhone and iPad, our team has worked hard to make Face ID secure, you can read more here: About Face ID security in 1Password for iOS
I look forward to hearing from you.
