TouchID unlock doesn't work on Opera
I'm using Opera version 84.0.4316.31 (arm64) on a macOS (other environment versions provided below). I unfortunately can't unlock my 1Password browser extension using any of the biometrics: TouchID or Apple watch. Can you please advise?
1Password Version: 8.6.0
Extension Version: 2.3.2
OS Version: macOS 12.1

Thank you for getting back to me @justlstn.
We are working hard to enable users to be able to use 1Password in their chosen browser. Currently you can install 1Password in Opera from the Chrome Webstore.
I hope this helps.

Hey @steph.giles,
Thank you for the information. This is not the wanted feature though, but now it would be a bit easier to work with 1Password in the browser.

Hi mgrave, I found a solution.
You can install 1Password 7 on the Mac using the AppStore - View link below

Then install the chrome extension on Opera and you will be able to use TouchID!
Don't install 1Password 8.Kindest regards,

TouchID works well with the 1password 7 extension for Opera. I am not going to upgrade to 1password 8 until better support is provided. Please add my +1 to the Opera support feature request. Thank you!

Please add my +1 to the Opera support feature request. It has been 7 months since this topic was created.
P.S. I checked your https://support.1password.com/getting-started-browser/ and was surprised to find Brave there (I even had to google for it). It's strange you folks decided to add its support first despite it has significantly smaller user base compared to Opera. One will hardly even find Brave in most of global browser usage stats, where Opera has been present for almost 30 years!

faktory We do have a feature request opened with a developers for that. I'll add your voice to the request so that our developers know that it's something that impacts your experience. Hopefully full support for Opera can be added in the future.

@Joy_1P maybe it's time to fully support Opera?

Hey @honza123456, the extension can save and fill in Opera. The only limit is that it does not share a lock state with the app, as Opera is not an officially supported browser at this time. We do have an internal feature request to support Opera and I can add your voice to that request. Hopefully it is something that our Product team and developers will consider in the future.
We would hate to see you go but if you feel that's best for your situation, then you can email mailto:support+forum@1Password.com. If you do send an email, please include:
