Thank you for the feedback, I've shared it with the team. There isn't a way to set a custom pin and it sounds like the best option for you is to set an account password that is easier to type in while still being secure using the guide that I shared earlier. Remember that your 1Password account is protected using not only your account password, but your Secret Key as well: About your Secret Key
