Touch ID will not unlock 1Password 8

On my MacBook Air touch id unlocks other apps and sites as well as unlocking the machine after a reboot but no luck with 1P8.


1Password Version: 8,7.0
Extension Version: 2.3.3
OS Version: macOS 12.3.1

    ITs not an mac issue. its a 1PW v8 issue. Yes you need to do several more steps to reach things in v8 and from usability its just bad.

  • Hello @David777! 👋

    You should be able to unlock 1Password 8 for Mac using Touch ID even after a reboot. It sounds like something might be going wrong on your Mac and I apologize for the issue. I'd like to ask you to create a diagnostics report from your Mac:

    Sending Diagnostics Reports (Mac)

    Attach the diagnostics to an email message addressed to support+forum@1password.com.

    With your email please include:

    The report will be in zip format. Please send the entire file.

    You should receive an automated reply from our BitBot assistant with a Support ID number. Please post that number here. Thanks very much!

    I can unlock it with Touch ID but first have to click the fingerprint icon.

    Do you have the Touch ID setting enabled under 1Password's Preferences > Security?
