Hey @CFster, it sounds like you are referring to 1Password's Accessibility shortcut.

Let me clarify that there are two Accessibility options that you can enable, the Accessibility service itself and the Accessibility shortcut. Only the service is necessary, and the shortcut does not provide anything with regards to 1Password, which is why nothing happens when you tap on it. The shortcut can instead be used for another type of Accessibility service, like TalkBack or Magnification: https://support.google.com/accessibility/android/answer/7650693?hl=en#:%7E:text=Choose%20a%20shortcut%3A,swipe%20with%20TalkBack%20turned%20on.

I suspect the Android 12 beta may be enabling this Accessibility shortcut by default. Therefore, all you'll need to do is disable 1Password's Accessibility shortcut, as it will not do anything.

Let us know if there's anything else we can help you with 😊
